Grumpzilla and Grumpertons

About 20 years ago, I stopped studying quantum mechanics because it frustrated me so much; I wanted to understand the “quantum regime.” After coming back to study more, I’ve made a lot of progress. I always hated that some said quantum mechanics was weird, or if you think you understand it, you don’t. You just need to know there’s a difference between seeking ontology of the subatomic, Vs the epistemic adequacy of quantum mechanics. While I’m nowhere near done studying physics overall, I’m still proud of my progress.

The universe is continuous (observably, because who knows beyond the light horizon), conserved (no absolute destruction, or creation without conserved quantities, only relative transformations), observed universe is deterministic and almost all known physics are emergent (via initial condition).

In other words, I view the observable universe as a conserved superposition (wave mechanics, not quantum statistics) of nested superpositions (bodies of excitations) that interfere according to correlations, or lack thereof in the case of mismatched propagators.
