What's the official uniform for Mathematicians, Physicists, Chemists and Biologists?

That doesn't respond to the point at all.

What happens is we look at the brain and see that there are neurological firings, if you will, which appear as precursory to any decision.

Did you ever think maybe those precursors are just part of the consciousness itself, that consciousness isn't some inherently digital thing which has a necessarily quantifiable basis? That those circuit executions are not some sort of calculation which prompt the consciousness into existence, but rather just a prior (signification of) consciousness in itself.

Basically what it is is that we eliminate this (obvious) reasoning out of the picture because once you factor it in, you can't really explain shit, the model is departed from the bulk of its descriptive power. It shows that the formalism is what is post-hoc, not the consciousness. This is the intuitive view. This is the common sense notion that we realise when we ponder whether or not we're consciousness-abled, free willed beings.

You can either have the fact that science is just another formalism, and not connected to reality/departed from subjective human interpretation any more than any one-off mathematic or algebra or formal system/model. One which reduces the single most intuitive aspect of human experience to an illusion. OR you can have the notion that intuition exists, that we have free will, basically that common sense is common sense, but just that science is put in its place, not as the be all and end all of knowledge, but simply as another formal interpretation of reality, one which isn't more or less significant than any other formalisation in terms of the 'truth', but simply one which just experiences a great deal of success in terms of its applicability.

This isn't to say that science is NOT more successful (in terms of relevance), than most other formal systems of its kind (it obviously is, see: technology), but just that it in itself has limits.

But we've known that since Kant.
