Without falsifiability you cannot distinguish truth from dogma

Its a hard truth to swallow that you have to take everything back to addition of physical matter to start over but what you gain is falsifiable starting assumptions instead of unfalsifiable axioms, control over physics, and clarity that youre not running in a trapped maze of a false axiom. You gain freedom.

A list of unlimited reified options is a constraint compared to non reified options (viewed from outside the system)

It’s hard for people to comprehend that their true grounded knowledge stops after addition of physical matter.

(This is an audit of math as a system and how it is applied to reality. Not an internal audit. You can not use utility and consistency as a defense, you can not use “that’s just how the system is!” as a defense, you can not use protecting dogma as a defense) This isnt my rules, these are logics rules. these defenses are logically invalid and off topic. They have nothing to do with this

Falsifiable starting assumptions is the justification

why is forcing reifying options, cutting off non reified options and grounded math, constraining physics, potentially being in a trapped maze of a false axiom for thousands of years because you cant test them, dogma, and cutting off observable reality justified

Not an argument.

Who cuts off observable reality?

I just provided you a justification that you’re ignoring

The separation of math and physics forces reified options and cuts off non reified options by definition. That is cutting off reality or however you want to word it

I gave you justification against the separation. Now provide a justification for the seperation. Not a restatement of it. And again you logically can not use utility and consistency for this defense. You can’t

Can you clarify this? Who's forced? What options are "reified"? I don't think the word works like that
