Maybe I have forgotten the context of Youngman's email but I don't understand what point he is making. ALL engineering depends on mathematics, because math-based methods are far more likely to lead to dependable systems than using math-free methods. What methods would he recommend?

All reasoning depends on axioms. Does Youngman eschew reasoning?
