On reading the first paragraph, I hoped this post would be an argument in favor of mathematical realism. Somewhat disappointed that it's not. Ever since reading Tegmark's paper on the Mathematical Universe Hypothesis, math realism vs math formalism has been at the back of my mind. The MUH fascinates me, but my prior for math realism is pretty low. (Possibly lower than 0.3).
