> "Physics is mathematical not because we know so much about the physical world, but because we know so little; it is only its mathematical properties that we can discover."

Math isn't behind everything, and not everything can be explained with math.

Without myself making any claim about whether maths is or isn't behind everything....

that we may only be able to discover mathematical properties does not itself justify saying that "Math isn't behind everything, and not everything can be explained with math."
