    Agreed, but I’m still getting a vibe of that statement being correct at some level, from some point of view.

    The nature of reality at the smallest scales is slippery, and it is still a fact that simply observing/interacting/measuring it has an effect, that layers of reality at their “pixel level” are blurry.

    And it is absolutely astonishing that we as a species have developed the tools and know-how to reach this understanding.

      Correct. Whoever thinks that science kills the magic and wonders of life is an idiot. And that’s true for all the departments.
