You know a lot more Maths than I do, and I agree with you (even if my thoughts in it all are more about having a fancy name to get people who claim both Positivism and "Maybe it's all a simulation man" to recognise the hypocrisy of that).

My whole life-data-mismatch thing is from similar discussions with positivists, as I think life and consciousness is a pretty easy area to show that it doesn't hold all the answers.

Back to the main point:
The idea that Maths is countable is pretty wild, and I'm gonna need to mull on it. Thanks for sharing.
