Yes, thank you, I don’t think that was there when I read it. I’m not sure then that the statement that universe runs on math at that point has any degree of meaning.
It seems self evident once you get it, but it’s not obvious.
In the general population you get these people who say “well, if it’s all just atoms, whats the point”? They don’t realize that everything has to run on logic regardless of whether the underlying phenomenon is atoms or souls or whatever. (Or at least, they don’t agree. I shouldn’t say “realize” because the whole thing rests on circular arguments.)
It also provides sort of ontological grounding onto which further rigor can be built. It’s nice to know what we mean when we say we are looking for “truth”.
