And then ultimately math, which is somehow both the ultimate unreality, yet simultaneously the only thing that is real.

Except then you get quantum mechanics, and math either no longer models reality, or reality itself doesn't follow math, except conversely math is the only thing that it does follow (sometimes). 😜
