People often speak of the axioms in maths when they describe how, "elegant," and, "consistent," it is. I'm not a mathematician but I've read Gödel's "proof" and know enough that there are no guarantees. It matters what system of axioms you use and requires the reader to recognize the limits of those axioms in defining the system of logic they they imply. Or some such. Point being that there is no system that is complete. There are large bodies of mathematics these days that have specialized their notations and axioms to their domains. It is incredibly difficult to maintain a masterful knowledge of all of their idiosyncrasies and notations. |
