The numbers themselves are descriptive, sure, we can play with the system divorced from any definition of set, but it's always understood at that point that we're playing with a system. Any insight that comes from playing with the system is first checked against the defined set (reality) before we propose that this insight is relevant to anything beyond the system itself.
Putting chestnuts together to get specific and easily predictable amounts of chestnuts is not the same as putting 1+1=2.
It's so blisteringly easy to demonstrate that 1+1=2 that it's commonly used an introduction to math (and subsequent theory) for toddlers. The lesson is, apparently, lost on some.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
