species complex, hybrids, mimicry, evolutive convergence, chimaeras... Life is too complicated and exhuberant to reduce it to a math formula

No it's not. It is likely too complicated to reduce to a formula that you can evaluate in reasonable time, or too complicated to measure with sufficient accuracy to even know what numbers to put into that formula, but life still follows the laws of physics and to the best of our knowledge they can be expressed in mathematical language.
