Whenever I see "Hilbert space" remarks in a paper that doesn't concern abstract math, I roll my eyes and imagine a chef who starts his youtube video with "Today we are going to cook a salad. For better precision, we are going to use knifes of triangular shape, three dimensional plates of circular shape, and the 100% dihydrogen of oxyde solution." All this only to obfuscate the fact that the entire recipe is just chopping a few carrots.
