> Theorems by definition must be formalizable. A theorem is not simply a true proposition, it's a provable proposition and a proof is necessarily a formal/syntactic property of a proposition.

Yes that's fair. To be accurate the formal definition of a theorem entails that provability. I was being too loose in essentially using "theorem" to refer to any proposition.
