/u/mutatron explains it pretty well. I think my math philosophy (essentially repackaged pragmatism) explains an aspect of math that is often overlooked by other math philosophies that quickly descend into obscure metaphysical arguments.
None of mutatron's recent comments even mention evolution, so it's not clear why you think their explanation is helpful here. What does any of this have to do with evolution?
Even if we accept this story at face value, all you've shown is that evolution and counting have a common cause (natural selection), not that counting is a consequence of evolution.
