1+1=2 is pure math fantasy, unrelated to reality.

1 apple + 1 apple = 2 apples as prediction of
"fruit evidencing math model" has strong relation to reality.

But nobody reasonable says
2 apples as result of equations
is more real than 2 apples as pieces of fruit.

The similar applies,
if math is used in physical models of reality.
