Minor correction, but actually classical paths make the action stationary, they don't minimize it. All minima are stationary points but not all stationary point

Minor correction, but actually classical paths make the action stationary, they don't minimize it. All minima are stationary points but not all stationary points are minima. Sometimes the classical path maximises the action, and sometimes it is a saddle point.
