These do not describe the universe. Infinite precision such as in 'pi' or 'e' does not exist.

I'm okay with mathfags using the reals but at least admit it's just pointless circlejerking that has no actual real world application.

right, but you the reals aren't enough to describe the universe

2 has as much precision as pi you imbecile

The numbers that describe the universe are like your sex life OP, imaginary.

Nor do Hodge theaters or exact sequences and yet we don't refrain from using them

Nobody but Memezuki uses (or even knows) Hodge theaters.

Your theory doesn't have to perfectly match the real world to have real world application.

you can ask for any decimal digit of both 2 and pi and get an answer no matter how far you want to look, infinite precision.

try again brainlet.

Probabily of finding 2 in a interval that contains it is 0, just like pi, so it is pretty much the same, just a real number
