I’ll refine your criticism: it’s that platonism in mathematics, where mathematics is the gold standard instead of computability in most fields, has led to disaster in applied mathematics especially in physics.

Economists are using the wrong calculus but at least they understand the problem.

I work in the epistemology of universal commensurability and testifiability and so understanding that computability (operationalism, intuitionism, realism, naturalism) has surpassed mathematics as a logical foundation for applied mathematics is a natural consequence of that work.

We can (we are working on it) naturalize mathematics rather easily and the discipline would change little other than in basing itself on solid foundations.
