And you will be able to apply it to things that follow thoose axioms but finding such things that follow them is the only hard part. We define 1+1=2 and that is true because we define it that way. If it does not hold true in any physical or something then it is that you are applying a correct math for a system which doesnt work with that math(i.e, you are the problem for assuming the same axiom is true for the real system)

I might go even further and say there’s no “math”. There are a wide variety of axiomatic systems. None has the sole claim to being “math”.

I’ll pick my side. They are all mathematics
(I belive math and mathematics are different. What is commonly called math is just numbers and stuff. But mathematics fits the general description of all axioms)
