To assume arithmetic is real is ambiguous, if not non sensical.  

All we have to assume is that a number added to 0 gives that number, that 0 is 
not a successor, etc. We have just to believe that 817 is prime or not prime, 
or that (x + 4 = 9) admits a solution, or not. I have never met a physicist who 
does not believe in those truth.

Now, given that all computations are run in arithmetic, a believer in Matter is 
invited to provide evidences, but as Plato understood already, there are no 
evidences at all. Not one. All the evidences we have today points on the 
immaterial consequence of Digital mechanism, from molecular biology to QM 
without collapse.
