>Numbers are an abstract conception of the geometric reality
No ,numbers are real

If every number exists in a Platonic Realm of Forms, then every thing computable — which can be represented as a long number comprised of 0s and 1s — also exists there, eternal and unchanging.

Every idea, every thought, every book, every photo, every video, everything that ever was, everything that was not, eveything that will be and won't be, everything that could be. All as numbers.

There is a number in the Platonic realm that contains in its 0s and 1s every scientific law and truth.

Yes. Furthermore, the answer regarding our speed ratio must be exact. If the race does not end in a tie, the cosmos will unravel and all world lines will converge in an inter-universal catastrophe, bringing about the end of all things.
For the prosperity of order in the universe, this ratio must not be approximated to express its true form. It must be named. All approximations are an illusion; a shadow on the wall of the cave, if you will.
Don't make a mistake. Getting bored in the middle of a Cauchy sequence and truncating pi might destroy the future and the past.

nonexistence isn't the default state for anything
if something is a "thing" it must necessarily exist
ideas exist by default, as soon as they are conceived
the universe is a collection of imperfectly realized ideas

it has the tendency to exist

Why should one care about metaphysics though? It seems to be to be philosophy at its more esoteric. Most of it seems to be in the not even wrong category and doesn't actually explain how things are and just unnecesary complicated definitions of cause,existence,being,etc

Am I just a r/atheist fedora or do you get what I'm trying to say

Maybe its just because I bit a bit jaded because most of my experience withit comes from hack christian apologist reapidly saying "everything must have a cauze!!" to try to prove God but I don't see its value honestly.
