Knowledge is to extract signals from the noise.
As such, math is a map of the territory. It is an abstraction from the larger reality, not fundamental to it. If it tried to incorporate all information in the territory, it would revert back to noise.
The belief that math is somehow deeper or more fundamental than the nature from which it is abstracted, is like believing you can have pure signal, without any noise.
The underlaying reality is inherently dynamic. Mostly light and its effects. More verb, than noun, so there is no signal, without noise.
