The thing that I find fussing is the boundless optimism of very many 
people that the reduction of everything (as per Carnap) to Mathematical 
descriptions will eventually happen.

This is best pointed out by the phrase "at this time"; the implication 
of which is a firm, almost unshakeable belief that, given time, 
everything will be boiled down to nice, tidy little materialistic
mathematical descriptions.
