No, not at all. One can easily have an incomplete math representation
of some aspect of a concrete thing. But one cannot have a complete math
representation of some aspect

What? I don't understand.

Glen,
You say math can jump in and out of context with 'meta-math', "a mechanistic
method for "jumping out" of the context of any given mechanism into its
entailing context."If you have a complete mathematical representation of
a button, how would you derive a representation of a button hole fr
