Either you answer yes, or no to that question. If you answer yes, I
don't see how you can escape mathematical realism.
By observing that "real" and "true" are different attributes.
True is enough to yield reality, under computationalism.
Good point.
For a logician, "true" means "satisfied by a reality", with *reality*
modeled by the notion of *model*. This helps to avoid unnecessary
philosophical debates.
