True mathematics needs no formal and no informal axiomatization. The

Of course, you have your own definition of "true mathematics".

It is just that what can be proved without axioms, namely proved by
experiment.

You've not shown any "experiment" that "proves" that the set of real
numbers is countable.

Every experiment shows that there are no infinite sets.

The DEFINITION of 'function' does not require the terms 'domain' and
'range'.

Why then does a function require it?

What does "require" mean? Evey function HAS a domain, but the
DEFINITION of a function does not require mentioning that fact

You are wrong. A function defined without domain is not a function.
The function f(x) = x cannot be "proved" to have any domain.
