But the math we study in our minds has no gaps.
How do you explain this?
Uncertainty exists only in our minds, not in the universe. With every variable, every action and every reaction considered, everything can be computed. It is highly unlikely that we will ever have enough information at any one moment for our language of mathematics to correspond exactly to the math of the universe. But we can get close enough, then adjust the results to meet the observation.
Variables are innumerable. The "math we study in our minds" is the simplest necessary for insignificant variations. Back to the orbit of Earth. Some of the variables not considered are magma flow, gravitational effects from the galaxy, perhaps gravitational effects from other galaxies, weather, sunspot activity, etc. These variables are not considered, albeit they have an effect, it is too small to consider and the mathematical equations involved would be all too consuming. It is easier to just add a couple of seconds to the calendar than create and solve the complete set of equations.
The math is there, we just 'subjectively' decide how much of it will meet our needs then we 'subjectively' remove the "gaps".
Are you sure? Most of quantum mechanics relates the concept that observation changes things. If so, how does math exist in the "observed" world?,
Or is it in the observer? Both?
