Give me an example of something that has no value of any kind! It does not exist! Please, I am asking.
Quantum is a mathematical expression.! Can you do smaller? Planck scale is a mathematical expression! Astatine is the shortest lived atom, but it has a radioactive value as long as it exist physically. When it decays it no longer exists and has no intrinsic value of any kind.
I have been thinking about this expression that a "map is not the terrain". Well duhhh.
A map is a piece of paper with mathematical directions to the mathematical coordinates where an object, mountain, lake, gold mine may be found. A map is a mathematical instrument that can guide you to an existing physical object . It never claims to be anything else!
The entire expression is a false (cheap) equivalence if the example is used as a geological instead of a geometrical instrument. There may be a side note with a measurement or some information of what may be found at specific global coordinates, but a map is never the terrain, that fact is obvious .
(warning, rattle snake country)
