Everyone sees the glory moments, but they don't see what happens behind the scenes.
I can counterfeit the deep tragedian;
Speak and look back, and pry on every side,

Deductivism in mathematical literature and inductivism in scientific papers are simply the postures we choose to be seen in when the curtain goes up and the public sees us. The theatrical illusion is shattered if we ask what goes on behind the scenes. In real life discovery and justification are almost always different processes.
