In physics, the change from classical to quantum theory was a change from determinism to probabilistic determinism. There is not one physicist on earth that would ever exhort you to use quantum theory where classical theory will do. Furthermore, when you study physics you must learn the classical theory first or you will be hopelessly lost, just like the author of this article.
The central analogy of the article is entirely bogus.
This article does not rise to the level of being wrong.

- hearsathought 1y ago> In physics, the change from classical to quantum theory was a change from determinism to probabilistic determinism. Don't you mean from determinism to nondeterminism? > There is not one physicist on earth that would ever exhort you to use quantum theory where classical theory will do. That's being practical.
