Had to write this one out...
Dawkins' law of academic difficulty:
"Obscurantism in an academic discipline expands to fill the vacuum of its intrinsic simplicity. Physics is genuinely difficult and so physicists who try to make it simple are doing a great job. There are other subjects which actually have no content at all and therefore and their protagonists will sometimes language it up to make it sound profound when there is no profundity there."
Great! Let’s have more moderation by Coleman.
