How is what’s mentioned here, not just the old idea of determinism demonstrated or shown from a different perspective?
I always thought science was biased toward the assumption that the universe follows basic deterministic rules, and the purpose of doing science was to find the nature of those rules. What I mean by this, is that when we do science, we are trying to determine the nature behind things - are we not? Therefore, determining things, or determinism, is at the heart of doing science. Assuming otherwise, seems like a disservice to practicing science, but maybe that's just me?
Granted, I know nothing is settled yet, but I have a hard time seeing anything new here. Just old ideas communicated in an analogous new perspective…
