Don't Call It Science, Call It Approximation !

This essay explores the epistemological gap between idealized geometric models in physics and empirical reality. By examining spacetime curvature, quantum fluctuations, the non-existence of true straight lines, and the illusion of strict rectilinear orthogonality in electromagnetism, we argue that exact mathematical perfections such as zero curvature and perfect 90-degree angles do not exist in the physical world. Consequently, what we traditionally call science is simply approximation. This work builds upon the foundational framework introduced in my Circular Motion Interaction Theory (CMIT), which derives emergent spacetime from relational random dynamics and curvilinear spherical geometries. Acknowledgments:I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my family, and especially to my life and love: Milo.

Abstract

This essay explores the epistemological gap between idealized geometric models in physics and empirical reality. By examining spacetime curvature, quantum fluctuations, the non-existence of true straight lines, and the illusion of strict rectilinear orthogonality in electromagnetism, we argue that exact mathematical perfections such as zero curvature and perfect 90-degree angles do not exist in the physical world. Consequently, what we traditionally call science is simply approximation. This work builds upon the foundational framework introduced in my Circular Motion Interaction Theory (CMIT), which derives emergent spacetime from relational random dynamics and curvilinear spherical geometries. Acknowledgments:I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my family, and especially to my life and love: Milo.
