Yes it is but we know that representations of reality are not reality itself. The map is not the terrain
The laws of physics are written in mathematical form. But that does not mean the universe is maths
So as long as the concept is not mistaken for the thing it is describing then it is perfectly acceptable


For LI I think the (mental) map IS the terrain. There is no terrain except that which WM imagines.

It's all contradiction. One big undivided category error.
