    According to mathematical platonism, yes.

    Otherwise we have no idea. We have some models of physics, none perfectly describing our universe. We don’t know the structure of space, or the structure of time.

    Even if we did: what would it mean for a line or a plane to exist? There could be equivalent descriptions of our universe, some including those as objects and some only as emergent properties.
