Ok, so, you're basically saying that perfect simulation is not a
requirement for something to 'be mathematics'. I don't think you can
construct a nontrivial model for mathematics without including that,
but I'd be happy to be proven wrong, and if you'll provide your
criteria for the question of what qualifies as 'being mathematics' we
might get somewhere.
