Strange to say, elementary maths just appears to be a fact. That is, it is a fact that
1+1=2.
Or it comes from our conceptualizing the world as consisting of distinct objects and
counting them, c.f. William S. Cooper "The Origin of Reason" and Lakoff and Nunez
"Where Mathematics Comes From".
That makes sense, but only by negating computationalism.
I don't see that it is inconsistent with saying "yes" to the doctor - though it may be
inconsistent with other parts of your argument like the UDA.
