15. Math is a subject that is hard to doubt, even on a philosophical scale.
For the most part, I agree. But there are some weak spots here and there. What is math based on? IMO, it is founded on certain intuitions, and particular upon the simple notion of unified quantity, and the core of this is singularity. Without this, all concept of ratio would be impossible. Now where does this come from? I think it's transcendental.

You could use 10 or 1, depending if you were "measuring" doubt or certainty. But in essence, yes.

18. Here we see that language plays an important part in our understanding of knowing, believing, and certainty.
I think this is an understatement, even. What could understanding be, if it were not lingual? I include mathematics as a sort of rarefied logos, fit to deal with quantity rather than qualia.

I like "Notion qua Notion." For me, that's a key concept.....the concept of concept...
But what does it mean to/for you? I'm curious.
