The question wasn’t directed to me, and if Matthew, who has a PhD in physics, says the question is beyond his paygrade, I’m certainly not going to weigh in with my uninformed opinion. Now, to say you “poked” in hopes of having a discussion is a mischaracterization, at best. “That’s a whiff” isn’t an invitation to dialogue. It was a condescending remark. I didn’t “chime in” to poke at you. I spoke up for Matthew because he has more expertise in the subject than either of us. Intellectual humility is a good thing.
Is this the question you want to discuss?
I’d be glad to do so with two caveats: You can’t reply with snappy one-liners or ChatGPT replies. That’s not a discussion (or even interesting).
