Nice troll ;) Generally speaking, in life contexts, “dark” is orthogonal to “useful”.
Which might be related to why Dark Matter is looked up on, by some in the Physics community — it seems that it Matters too much. But if the problem is that brightness is insufficiently constrained, why should we want to educate people, burdening them with this defect? [The above makes about as much sense as the original troll: if things are orthogonal, they don’t correlate at all. So if anything is “too powerful” we don’t know a thing about its usefulness.] Am 18.01.23 um 09:29 schrieb Raul Miller:
