Explaining "why they do" is - most unfortunately -
not changing the fact that they do. Common sense

Well, at least a "Theory of Everything" must start
with a "logical, mathematical theory a foundations",
as it's always a "Mathematical Physics", and regardless
whether the mathematical interpretation lines up with
the physical interpretation lines up with the data,
it's always a mathematical physics and there's the
ubiquitous success of mathematics in physics, thusly,
any foundations of physics or "the theory" demands
a foundations of mathematics the "the theory".
No, there is no 'must'.
Nature will tell us how nature works. If there are mathematical principle involved, we will find out.
But 'mathematical principles' is not necessarily among the foundations of nature.
We as human beings will have most likely problems, to reproduce the mathematical principles of nature (supposed there are any),anyhow, because nature is using means, which we cannot imitate.
There is for instance massive parallel processing and infinite time, which are means, that humans do not have.
So, our mathematical modells need to simplify things, to allow some sort of meaningful calculations, while nature has all the time in the world and as many 'processors' as wanted.
Also our knowledge is restricted to the observable part of the universe, while nature can and will use all information that exists.
So our possibilities are restricted to what we can model in math, while nature could use all sorts of other things.

"A Theory"
So, foundations of mathematics and foundations of physics
go together indubitably, and especially as to how there
are multiple law(s) of large numbers (infinity, infinitesimals)
and continuity, with respect to all such matters of continuum
mechanics, including the quantized version the quantum mechanics.
It's a continuum mechanics, ....
So, mathematics _owes_ physics better (and, less) mathematical
models, to automatically equip the physical models, to
result better.
