Well, that has certainly been the tendency since Galileo. Those that don't manage to produce a mathematical model are generally not taken seriously.
So then Steve is simply wrong in his notion that a mathematical model of infinity must also be demonstrated to exist in the physical world before it could be considered logically possible, lol. Actually, that seems like a completely ass-backwards approach to theoretical physics, at least from the perspective of my pea brain.
