In fact in quantum physics, we literally can’t know momentum and location at the same time.

I mean, we can know a precise wavefunction, though. That's a bit like saying we can't give a single point where a tsunami is. It seems highly likely to me personally that physics is mathematical and we've just kind of absorbed it in the process of evolving intelligence.
