Extremely shit take because plenty of math stuff wasn't discovered a priori in the process of solving applied science problems before they were formalized, even economics, like Euler's constant that was discovered in the context of interest rates.

So pure math is when you don't know how to apply it yet.

The E Constant is an especial case of diferencial equations. Math created calculus, physics discovered How to apply in real world

With "discovered" you are making more unnecessary ontic commitments than with "conceptualized".

OP here. I should mention that my major was linguistics, and my main intellectual interest is philosophy. I was inspired to make this post while thinking about how much of generative syntax was more or less bullshit. I make fun of psychologists a lot for not studying a real field, but my field is not exactly stellar in terms of being grounded in reality.
Plenty of STEM stuff is "fake" as I would define it. Look at kurgsegagt or really anything a science communicator has said about aliens. And of course evopsych is the gold standard for made up STEM bullshit. I wasn't intending to rekindle tired old fights between humanities and STEM majors. Both areas of knowledge are very important to human flourishing.

I stand by my ranking though.
