I disagree.

I see 5 fields all interconnect, easily so.
How many do you seee?

>Side note, had a thought the other day, the word "University", Uni (1) and Verse (Sentence/Thought), so it means "One Thought" or how we would call it today;
Theory of Everything.

I don't actually think we live in a simulated universe but, to me, that's a separate issue from the idea that the universe exists as a series of numbers. The nature of reality seems increasingly abstract as you observe the properties of increasingly smaller pieces of it. For example, many properties of subatomic particles (color, strangeness, charm, flavor, etc) are named arbitrarily simply to enumerate that property which can't really be understood as anything but a numerical value continuously interacting with other numerical values. Maybe this is just our observational limitations, but I can't help but wonder if reality actually IS as "abstract" as it seems to us at its foundations, which leads me back to the idea that math is the language of the gods.
