you're right, its just that 'platonic' is an argument that numbers exist in the universe as objects in and of themselves, completely independent of human reality. if we don't assume this, that numbers are a system that humans created (formalism), then sure, we can be happy that llms are picking common representations that map well into our subjective notions of what numbers are.
