..Your Nobel is in the mail...
If you really mean Nobel price, then you should consider, it's a professional price, by the same way like
OSCAR Annual Academy Award. Common people cannot get it without scientific titles, publications the less.
Nobody forces you to forget everything, what you know about existing theories, but you should consider, many things of relativity and quantum mechanics can be explained by behavior od dense particle environment (or by many other plural ways, supposedly) - not just assumed by formal equations based on ad-hoced (although carefully verified) postulates. BTW, this property of physical theories follows from particle nature of reality as well.
During ideas evolution every group of people, which brought a new level into understanding has become a brake of subsequent evolution due their blind adherence to existing paradigms. I'm not saying, formal equations aren't necessary for understanding of physics.
..It just so happens that ..the abstractionist paradigm...is not so good at representing the non-technological Universe. ...
From AWT perspective it's logical. I'm just saying, here's more, then just equations. These equations correspond the foamy density fluctuations (a strings), which are formed inside of every sufficiently dense particle system. These zero-dimensional particles, not higher dimensional strings are what is forming the observable reality. The existence of strings is just a result of particle fluctuations.
AWT just explains, how these strings and equations can be derived by using of particle environment concept. Is it so unethical to propose some deeper explanation of reality from purely scientific perspective? If it appears so for some scientific proponents, they we should put the question, for what the science is really working for today.
For all people - or just for scientists only?
