To realize why Double Entry Bookkeeping is grounded in many profound ideas, one may start with Yoneda Lemma, a concept that can be summarized as Tai-Danae Bradley's statements on her blog[1]:

1. Mathematical objects are completely determined by their relationships to other objectsCite error: Invalid <ref> tag; invalid names, e.g. too many.
2. The properties of a mathematical object are more important than its definitionCite error: Invalid <ref> tag; invalid names, e.g. too many.

The two statements above show that Double-Entry Bookkeeping is a numeric version of content invariance/symmetry over time.
