The whole "math is a universal" language is particularly laughable to me considering it is a formal system and the universe is observably irregular.
As I am wont to say: regularity is only ever achieved at the price of generality.
Many mathematical structures are 'irregular'. That's not a very strong argument against math as a universal descriptor.
Think about what math is trying to formalize
