    The way I like to think about it is this: If one is willing to

    4” can exist and be true independently of the universe or someone
    writing it down, or a mathematician thinking about it, that is all
    you need.


But it's truth value does depend on someone assigning the value "t" to some axioms and all mathematical truth values are nothing but "t" arbitrarily assigned to some axioms plus some rules of inference that preserve "t".  "t" has little to do with what it true in the world.
