Well yes, that is the interesting question. But if you say that there
are no numbers (apart from human invention), then how do you answer
Wigner's question? (of the unreasonable effectiveness of mathematics)

You remain only in the question. Maybe that is a reaction because you
feel that society has presented you with "answers" that weren't any?

I suggest taking the middle way: questions, thinking, answers, new
questions, criticising and eliminating old answers etc - that is more
interesting (more fun!) than remaining only in the question (which is
also a bit of a "dogmatic" position ;-)

Cheers,
Günther
