Math is perfection. So, it depends on if you consider math to "exist" in this world.

Not meaning to infringe on the unassailable beauty of mathematics, but the statement that it is “perfect” requires some qualification.
Something like “it achieves exactly what it sets out to do?”
Given your definition of perfection and why math fits it, is there anything else that fits the definition?

Don't you consider presence of axioms exactly the opposite of perfection?
Instead, it's the best human mind can muster.
Enjoying the process, while fully embracing this realization, is key.
