Note: in the body of the text are two contradictory statement. One is an obviously copied text link that states that”man didn’t invent math...it is what we are made of” or something close to that.
The other statement says that “when mathematicians can’t solve a problem, they move the goalposts” So, they invent a new math. How is it “what the world is made of” if we have to invent a new version? We clearly are “inventing” something that is not part of the world.

Swedish mathematician Per Enflo, is no ambitious up-and-comer. He is almost 80, has made a name for himself solving open problems,

But the "bien pensants" believe that we are all useless eaters after age 75 and should be expendable past that age. Maybe these opinion leaders are simply wrong.
