This is the inability to count. Counting is particularly relevant in science, where quantities of matter, energy, time, and distance result in all known phenomena. Physical phenomena such as pressure, temperature, reactivity, dynamics of motion, structural strength, visibility - and all derivative physical and biological phenomena that depend on fundamental quantities.
