Totally so. What a good view you gave on this! Thank you for providing it so so accentuated and to the point.

I often breed about this problematics and sometimes am deeply annoyed by this scientistic epidemic.

We count and measure and weigh because we can. It seems to be a certain fun and fascination to deal with quantities. In most cases we confuse quantity with quality and give reasons for actions and decisions based on measurements and statistics that contain but are not statements about quality.

Have you ever read Robert Pirsing's book about "The art of motorcycle maintenance"? There, the protagonist becomes almost mad in defining "quality".

The more we find out about man himself and about the environment, biological, chemical, physical influences, etc., as well as psychosocial aspects of human existence, the more and more detailed our efforts to measure everything. The units to be measured are further and further split and again split.

Now we have so many divided sciences and opinions and worldviews attached to them that it is difficult to unite them for a more holistic view. I find problematic in this context, if one tries to describe mental processes mathematically.

Alternative thinkers no longer talk about measurement, but about mapping.
