I didn't know I had that idea.
My claim is that *real* mathematics is scientifically applicable
mathematics, and that *real* mathematics is itself a science. In
contrast, Cantorian set theory implies the "existence" of world of
make-believe which has no role to play in the understanding of the real
world, and hence it is a pseudoscience.
