until someone questions your assumptions

Oh, come on. This is math. This is the one place in the universe where all of our assumptions are declared at the outset and questioning them makes about as much sense as questioning "would this science experiment still work in a universe where gravity went the wrong way". Please just let us have this?

If that were true almost every non trivial proof would be way way wayyyy too long.
