Voxengo developer finds math is engineered

What's interesting to me in the first place is that there are multiple, overlapping systems of varying scopes--_with_ their associated contradictions--in which this is a thing. Mathematics is just one of those systems.

The second thing that's interesting to me is that this is just one question which could offer insight toward further leverage, and yet the question itself hasn't seemed to offer much leverage so far. If you were to rank the questions that are "worth the time spent on them," I really wonder where this invented/discovered question would be in the list.

Does it matter whether we know the answer--whether we know if this thing was invented or discovered?

And if so, how much does it matter? Or, in what ways does it matter?

And, is it possible that it matters more that we can hold both of those possibilities in the same organizational mindset at the same time (invented AND discovered), and from that point consciously leverage them both?

That last question I really wonder about, because I've seen amazing & simultaneous results levered from both ends of such dichotomies.

There are also some interesting gaps here, i.e. intelligence == formulaic; the question-model of "where is it" vs. the possible model of "I don't know where it is," (therefore?) and so on.

Nevertheless a fascinating topic in lots of ways, thanks for posting.
