Indeed! I suspect/realize that the incompleteness proofs are in fact artifacts of our discrete symbolization - a discrete symbolization that though has been incredibly effective about reasoning about continuous 'phenomena'.
Perhaps that is exactly what mathematics is? and all it can be? Or perhaps there is a 'higher mathematics' that we cannot reach yet? (or ever?)
Yeah, it's frustratingly difficult to investigate these avenues of thought, because they are almost by definition out of our grasp. Even worse the barrier to esoteric pseudo-science is very thin.
