/sci/ - Science & Math

OP makes a good point and I've always thought the same.
Mathematics goes so far trying to explain reality but it's obvious it can't be right. Math is abstraction, simplification of reality that works... With a margin of error.
If you go too deep into math, the margin of error grows so much that it's nonsensical to try to apply it to explain reality.
Irreal numbers, really?
1+1=2
You won't find a case like that in nature.
Even 1 H atom + 1 H atom are going to have some unexpected reaction if you "add them together.
There is no 1 thing exactly equal to another. Atoms of a same element will have different positions, entanglements, or whatever different properties that we've to discover yet.
I agree with OP.
