Numbers may or may not be Platonic in a Form sense (that's besides the point) but what they are for sure (and what full-blooded platonism in mathematics would tell you) is that they are existent regardless of our associations with them. They are not objects bound to space and time, just as there is a number of dimensionless properties that exist, such as mass and charge. This goes right back to the argument your "older brother," made that 1-A's by their nature must be metaphysical, must be transcendent by their nature, which is simply not true. The fact of the matter is that you're changing nothing and your arguments are missing the point entirely.
