I think mathematics and programming appear that way because they deal with things that are imaginary. In reality, five oranges, for instance, are not equal to another five oranges. However many electrons it takes to trigger some switch, they're not the same thing as another bunch of that many electrons.
Actually the weird thing with elementary particles is that unlike oranges they are absolutely identical and can exchange places. I think this could be how quantum gravity works - by exchange tunneling. Martin
