If that happens, that would be absolutely monumental discovery, not just for CS, but for fundamental physics. I am a researcher working on building quantum computer hardware. If the whole premise of my career vanishes one day because Computational Complexity theorists find a way to prove that BQP as a complexity class is not more powerful than BPP, I would be *happier* than if I successfully build a quantum computer (although I probably would need to find a different job at that point). Such a discovery would shatter our understanding of the physical world and of abstract mathematics.
