This feels like the wrong step in the dance to me. Haven't you just thrown away all of mathematics? What new things do you expect after solving a quadratic equation?
User:Tiiba is correct. Math (after mapping to real-world predicates) allows me to more quickly form reliable expectations about the world. The claim that "this sentence is false" does not. Therefore, I can leave beliefs about the latter unassigned without epistemic or instrumental penalty.
