A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Everything in the physical world is physics. (I'm just now realizing how related those words are...). But mathematics can also describe purely abstract concepts, which I don't see how those are physics. It may be possible to make connections between some abstract concepts and our physical world, but it's a strong and imo incorrect claim to make that that's always meaningfully true (or will be in the future) and that that means those abstract concepts are physics.
Edit: It's certainly semantically incorrect whether there is a connection between all abstract math concepts and physics or not, because a universe with different physics would have the same math, which means physics cannot be the source of mathematical truth.
