If scientists were proficient in the same way shakespeare was would'nt they
have produced a consistent role for them to play? Would'nt they know which
scene he was playing, and when? and with whom? Would'nt this have made
things much simpler for science?
Don't different actors impart different qualities to the role? Or how could
we say one was better than another?
My point; actors make choices independently of the script writer.
And at this point I'm inclined to think atoms do too.
I'll sleep on it though.
