So Brian Greene did an AMA a while back, and one of his responses caught my eye.

Someone asked:

Hi, Brian! Do you think that math is a sort of objective truth that is discovered, rather than made up?

and he responded:

Is the universe fundamentally mathematical? Surely seems so. But I could imagine that one day we encounter an alien civilization and they say "So, show us what you've found to explain the universe" and we open our math-filled texts. To which they chuckle "Oh, math. We tried that. Only takes you so far. Here's how to REALLY understand reality..."

What's your take on this?

I feel the same way about Greene's response. Glad you agree.
