| You seem to be speaking from a place of greatly diminished self-awareness. Notice how you are constantly appealing to abstract unobservables to make your claims. No shame in that - all science does it. Quantities, numbers, fields, processes etc. etc. etc. That is precisely the metaphysical woo woo you are busy criticising. Formalism is all about turning that woo-woo into well-defined concepts. What's a "process"? Show me one. Only way I know how is to give you more metaphysical woo woo. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_calculus You know all that religious woo-woo about omniscience? We are still talking about it and even using it... https://ncatlab.org/nlab/show/principle+of+omniscience All this religious/devine woo-woo... The central dogma of computational trinitarianism holds that Logic, Languages, and Categories are but three manifestations of one divine notion of computation. There is no preferred route to enlightenment: each aspect provides insights that comprise the experience of computation in our lives.
