isomorphism, are illusory.
In his comment about immediate alive intuition, Weyl appears to opt
for the second, or perhaps the third, alternative. But on the
either of this, we face a perplexing epistemological question: Is
there something that I could know to be the case, and which is not
expressed by a proposition that could be part of some scientific
theory?"
It seems to me he left out the most likely case: that our science is
incomplete in a way we know.

Could you please express this knowledge explicitly?
