It’s not a new term. π
There is no platonic domain, any more than there is a middle earth or gandalf. π
It’s just one of the Fictionalisms (no I didn’t make that up) called Idealism, that we use to tell stories when we don’t know how to say them any more accurately. π

@curtdoolittle @FreePeterBiarM Math is the perfect example of Platonic Realism (a new experimental term I just coined…I think).
Two (2)-ness only exists in the Platonic domain. While there can be myriad expressions of two-ness in material reality, two-ness itself is not directly perceivable (like light).
