Which explains the human discovery and conception of the number. A scientific theory requires some assumptions/postulates/axioms, and all scientists assume the numbers with addition and multiplication (or something Turing equivalent). We cannot explain the number with anything less than a universal machinery. It happens that the natural numbers with + and * provides a simple universal machinery, and with computationalism, all the rest must be deduce from it (if the goal is to get a theory which handles both matter and consciousness).
