Math is based on integers. Integers are a human construction.
@PeterF @BestGirlGrace *Our understanding of math is based on integers. We can describe the natural logarithm as approximately 2.718, but in reality that is just a way to represent it in our minds in a base-10 system. The parts of math that most people encounter on a daily basis are integer-based, but much of the more complex areas used to explain reality are conceptual or make use of non-integer descriptors.

No problem.

Pi and e among others cannot be expressed as a ratio of integers, but are used extensively in maths ( I use the UK maths as opposed to the US math)

In quantum mechanics 'reality' is hidden behind 'imaginary numbers'.

Physics is best by 'singularities' e.g. black holes.

It seems integers are just a simplification humans need for understanding.

(These are my wild imagination, I have no proof!)
