I don't agree with her initial gripe. Discovery or serious exclusion - it is not weasel words, it is the truth. The correct question to ask is if the exclusion would be enough to warrant the cost. And of course this is far from the only result one would expect from such a machine. So these are not empty promises and while she clearly is not stupid, Hossenfelder sure loves telling people their research is useless... Edit: are you downvoting because you don't think my comment contributes to the discussion, or because you don't agree?

> "Discovery or serious exclusion - it is not weasel words, it is the truth." This misrepresents what she says about weasel words. Also she specifically addresses the "Discovery or serious exclusion" I didn't downvote but I would guess you've only skimmed the written article, try watching the video.

  No, I did read it, but I also responded emotionally as my research was attacked. That is, I consider Higgs a significant discovery.
