Yes mathematics sufficiently good enough perfectly describes reality, but also reality itself perfectly lays out mathematics. The two statements are equivalent why can't people understand this? Something about qualia is just as fundamental as numbers after all without qualia there are no numbers. I just have the feeling that qualia is itself self evident and no amount of numbers could ever describe the experience of it.
In other words all of mathematics and physics can be described as perfected language. If you try to use language in order to describe to a blind person what sight is like he still would not be able to understand it. Similarly trying to describe what experience is like through the language of mathematics will always be impossible because qualia are just as fundamental as the math itself.
