Dear Helmut,

❝ ... 2. Looking pretty is not a scientific category.


Some people, among them really famous ones, have here another point of view. For instance:
"It is more important to have beauty in one's equations than to have them fit experiment..." :cool:
Paul Dirac, paper on Magnetic Monopoles (1931)
(for more context see here or here)

Regards,

Detlew

Every man gets a narrower and narrower field of knowledge
in which he must be an expert in order to compete with other people.
The specialist knows more and more about less and less
and finally knows everything about nothing.    Konrad Lorenz
