Assuming comp, we can know that science will never been able to explain
where natural numbers come from. That's an insoluble mystery.
It makes science open. Forever.
But then comp *can* explain (but does not yet provide more than an
embryo of explanation, yet already confirmed) where waves and particles
come from, and also, unlike physics, why waves and particles can hurt
(cf G/G*).
