shadowy cabal, no but nice strawman, instead billions of people with divergent interests who rationally optimize for indivual utility instead of truth. Nothing significant is unsolved in physics. That's why bullshit tech religions are outpacing actual innovation. No I am not a "rationalist" rather more of a ecological / systems thinker. I did not claim lift was a primitive of physics. rather it is an absraction that can be instantiated on multiple substrates. trying to imitate existing implementations is not always the most efficient way to ultilize an abstraction. Any way i dont really care if you believe me or not it is just funny to see people spending billions competing in a status game seeking utility while claiming to be seeking truth which is actually much less advantageous once fully known.

> Ironic to use lift, an emergent phenomenon, as primitive of physics. (Is this rationalist lingo?)

(Different person)

As a rat, no, it is not.

Reads to me much like Star Trek technobabble or New Age quantum woo.
