Martin: it just hasnât worked out. Itâs okay to admit that it was a mistake to make this into [[Quantum Gravity|QG]] tunnel vision. Itâs been 40+ years and itâs embarrassing. | Martin: it just hasnât worked out. Itâs okay to admit that it was a mistake to make this into [[Quantum Gravity|QG]] tunnel vision.

|content=Both A) and B) are objectively true | |||
At Planck scale energies, a deeper theory must consistently describe particle interactions in a dynamic spacetime, reproducing QM and GR in their respective domains of validity | |||
No invented âvirusâ is required. Only mathematical consistency | |||

|content=I think you didnât get it Martin. | |||
The tell is the presentation. (Almost?) Everyone agrees that nature is consistent. | |||
Read the thread. There really is a giant difference. | |||

|content=I think you read something into these statements. Next time you talk to a physicist you suspect to be infected, ask them whether they mean anything other than what I said above. Do you know anyone who does? | |||

|content=Martin. I was there when the language changed. In the 1980s. It was swift. And it really didnât make sense. It was a [[Quantum Gravity|quantum gravity]] sales job. | |||
Ask people older than me who didnât become QG people. Or read the older literature. | |||

|content=Can you point me to anyone stating that quantum gravity means anything different from the above? That would be helpful | |||
