From what do you derive the statement, from the definition of change, or from the observation that all things are in constant change?
Basic arithmetic never changes, it is eternally constant, even if waves must, hypothetically, add themselves up, to make it eternally so. Arithmetic can always verify logical truth - either constructed arithmetic, or self-equilibriating-math - the math our natural self-logic uses.
