Sabine: He’s correct. I work in this subject matter, which consists of intuitionistic mathematics, operationalism in physics, and constructive logic across the spectrum. Our team works in operationalizing mathematics. For example, there are no ‘infinities’, only unknown limits. Negative numbers refer to a direction. The square root of negative one is a function for inversion of direction, just as is the absolute value.

The point of this is subtle: the origin of western reasoning began with geometric reasoning. The idealism in mathematics that arose from it, led to ‘poisoning’ philosophy, natural philosophy, and of course eventually, the failure of philosophy in the late 19th, and the reversal of Descartes by the re-platonization of mathematics in physics, and therefore the plaotonization of physics from mathematics (Bohr, Einstien).

So the consequence has been the absence of construction from realism, naturalism, materialism, and the use of ‘mathiness’ and ‘lost in math’ that you justly rail against. Small bad ideas in large numbers have vast consequences.

The computationalists are correct. And they are the population that is driving reform in mathematics and applied mathematics, particularly in such lost disciplines as the foundations of physics.

The information necessary to deduce the substance of quantum behavior is not present in the mathematics of waves and particles, but in the constitution of whatever manages to persist as it evolves from random interactions in the quantum background give differences in pressure (energy).
