can math be though of as a set of rules that describe everything that exist?

I keep on thinking that everything around us is basically just information. Be it DNA, atoms, or spacetime itself. And math is the set of rules that explain the interaction, flow and existence of this information. We did not uncover all the rules yet. Does this make sense?

Physics are the rules the universe follows. We do not know all of the rules, but we keep expanding our knowledge base.

Math is the language that allows you to understand the rules. If you cannot understand the math, you will not understand, say, quantum mechanics. You, me, whomever, can get a lay person’s understanding, but real knowledge and understanding requires speaking the language: math.

Just my opinion.
