And it's also possible that resolving the issues between relativity and quantum mechanics will have no implications relevant to FTL and such. In fact there's no particular reason to expect that it would. So we're back to just flat out speculation.
That's fine by itself, I love speculation, but that doesn't make this or that probable. It's the extending such speculation to making high confidence definitive statements, as though something's been demonstrated or proved likely, that I'm objecting to.
- eternalban 4y agoYes, but it is not unreasonable speculation. Speculation is not without value. > but that doesn't make this or that probable. Of course, that's a given.
- simonh 4y agoCool , we're in agreement, but it wasn't a given in the comment I was originally replying to which made very strong claims about what is probable.
