It's a minor quip.
Are numbers real? Would you say we discovered them, or invented them? Do ideas exist even if you haven't thought of them yet? If so then they are discoveries.
- thousande 11y agoEverything is a discovery. No one sat down and said now I am going to invent or think up something called numbers. A thing happens because of what happened before it, and before that thing another thing happened etc.
