When you say 'math', what does that mean to you?

To me, especially in this case, 'math' as used here (a model) is ultimately a formalization of a decision criteria. The decision criteria used here, VSE, is a value judgment. Assuming the math is correct and the simulation bug free, I'm most interested in assessing the norms (human values and priorities) implicit in the mathematical scoring function.

Though mathematical logic is indeed deductive, using it to assess social systems is subjective.
