The universe is ugly

 





Sabine Hossenfelder...again. Maybe we don´t need a theory of everything? Maybe such a unified theory is impossible since the universe isn´t aesthetically pleasing (mathematically speaking) in the first place? 

Interesting perspective, since many science do indeed prefer theories which are "simple" or "beautiful", supposedly on methodological grounds, but perhaps really for some kind of subjective reasons? What if the universe is extremely messy instead. Rather than getting lost in the math, scientists should do...you know...empirical research of the real world. 

What a concept.
