What exactly about it is “awe-inducing”? There are four fundamental forces. Okay. Not three, not five. Just like there are five Platonic solids, rather than four or six.

Now what? What am I supposed to feel awe about? Are you sure you aren’t just echoing words you’ve read in a popular science book?

To be clear, I have myself parroted such soundbites for decades. But at some point I asked myself what I was actually trying to say when I said them, and came up empty.
