Oh yes...for example, if you write an SF novell, wich is mainly a lot of unverifiable facts and non logical statements, then your is book is a big flaw. BUT, it can be accepted and even rewarded by humains because the language you used is not supposed to be 100% true, so no one will ask you to prouf every single word in your book. Writing someting with the mathematical language is an another story because you have to respect a lot of rules. You can put your imagination and creativity away and just act like a "machine". Math in fact can never make something wrong because it doesn't create or invente new things...other languages did and this is why they are more accepted by humains .
