I disagree.

The words that people use to describe numbers will end. People's use of numbers will end. But the "numbers," the concepts themselves will not end. If you have "two" lines, and you draw "two" more lines, then you most definitely have "four" lines there.

It doesn't matter what people call them. It doesn't even matter if there are any people here.

And what definition would that be?

It helps to be on the same page.
