Justice can be described with mathematical balance and equilibrium. Harmony is a mathematical phenomenon. Platonic or Pythagorean justice is resonant and mathematical, diversity in unity, a harmonizing identity
so I think this goes to the title of your piece—the question of *experience*. It's a hard word but to a very significant extend both the pythagoreans and platonists seem to take interactions with the forms to be a kind of non-sensory experience—not just a mental exercise but an encounter with something that is not reducible to one's own categories.
Here’s a risky thought about whether AI can access Plato’s world of forms.

ok this is fascinating. You are talking mainly about mathematical platonic objects, but what about higher forms like Justice?
