If it isn;t RITSIAR, it cannot be generating me. Mathematical
proofs only prove mathematical "existence", not onltolgical
existence. For a non-Platonist , 23 "exists" mathematically,
but is not RITSIAR. The same goes for the UD

Which for a non-Platononists is not at all

How can a conlusion that the material world doesn't exist
be neutrral about Platonism? If Platonism is false,
the mathematical world doesn';t exist either. and
there is nowhere for the UD to exist at all.
