What do you really mean exists - maybe you mean has something to do with a calculation in physics, or like we can possibly map it into some physical experience?
Doesn't that formal string of symbols exist?
Seems like allowing formal string of symbols that don't necessarily "exist" (or well useful for physics) can still lead you to something computable at the end of the day?
Like a meta version of what happens in programming - people often start with "infinite" objects eg `cycle [0,1] = [0,1,0,1...]` but then extract something finite out of it.
