there are things that do not require words to convey, Pi for example,
3.14159265359
But that’s the point (which I think you don’t understand) Pi (as a example) is a universal reality.
3.14159265359 is not pi, is a close approximation to it in the number systems we use, but Pi exists as a ratio beyond number systems and language.
And once again you have used words....
Yes, given the media we are using its required, but Pi as the ratio is a fundamental constant of the universe we live in, it would be the same anywhere in the universe, its built into the fabric of reality.
Nor do we know if number systems vary throughout the universe.
I expect they do, but it doesn’t matter, Pi remains the same. Its representation may change, but the ratio is constant.
But it is a shame cos my epistemology cures a lot of ills perhaps most importantly all forms of authoritarianisms.
It may do, but seeing it doesn’t seem to allow anything other than word games I doubt its of much actual use.
