I used to be a huge fan of John Baez when I was an aspiring theoretical physicist and into category theory. His weekly finds in mathematical physics column was my HN before HN. Didn't read the post but I wonder whether it relates to this "photomolecular effect" discussed here? https://youtu.be/17Y82tJDk2o?si=YjJAIhP3MkF8N6pT https://youtu.be/17Y82tJDk2o?si=YjJAIhP3MkF8N6pT The high level idea of reducing the cost per molecule of breaking those hydrogen bonds by having whole groups of molecules evaporate makes sense to me.
