Occam's Razor: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occam%27s_razor https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Occam%27s_razor : > In philosophy, Occam's razor [Latin: novacula Occami] is the problem-solving principle that recommends searching for explanations constructed with the smallest possible set of elements. It is also known as the principle of parsimony or the law of parsimony [Latin: lex parsimoniae]. Balance puzzle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_puzzle https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balance_puzzle : > A balance puzzle or weighing puzzle is a logic puzzle about balancing items—often coins—to determine which holds a different value, by using balance scales a limited number of times. These differ from puzzles that assign weights to items, in that only the relative mass of these items is relevant. Logical connective: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_connective https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logical_connective Quantum logic > Quantum logic as the logic of observables > The logic of classical mechanics && The propositional lattice of a quantum mechanical system: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_logic#Quantum_logic_as_the_logic_of_observables https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_logic#Quantum_logic_as... Quantum discord: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_discord https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_discord : > In quantum information theory, quantum discord is a measure of nonclassical correlations between two subsystems of a quantum system. It includes correlations that are due to quantum physical effects but do not necessarily involve quantum entanglement. Quantum nonlocality: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_nonlocality https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_nonlocality ; the dog on the Moon ate my homework 10 monotonic light years ago instantaneously due to nonlocality And then Quantum Causal Inference (and Quantum Statistical Mechanics) as a or the sufficient means with which to prove truth, epistemologically And then emergent dynamics in quasiparticle fluid phenomena unpredicted by curl further increase the degree of the nonlocal, entangled, superfluid, nonlinear complex adaptive system; and again the simplest explanation was wrong; it was the butterfly flapping its wings that caused the nonlocal dog to eat the homework about the supercooled and so superfluidic helium in space
