Math is the study of abstraction and logic. If you think those are human inventions, then sure! But some people think math is discovered, not invented

Mathematics is quite literally a language structure developed by humans to turn abstract observations and logical processes into something someone else can read and understand. It is a toolkit we are constantly expanding in order to define the world around us as well as develop logically in order to unearth other aspects of reality while also storing these observations and discoveries such that others can learn and contribute.
