    If you put things in a way that's easy to take in, they spread
    faster. Kind of funny, but that exact line, "We already know
    what . . ." might actually be an example of it!

    That's a good point. I was looking for a short part I could quote, and ultra-processed turned out to be what I wanted.


    On the flip side, the second you try to lay out what Bell's
    inequalities really mean, people just roll their eyes and go, "What a
    load of nonsense!". So in the end it comes back to what Lao-Tzu said:

    Trustworthy words are not pretty;
    Pretty words are not trustworthy.

    That's a great quotation. I'm swiping it for a new signature.
