[MD] Quality and the Higgs Field: An Analogy

[118]

Hi Adrie,
Thanks for your input to my analogy.  However, it seems that your
reply seems more about Critical linguists than anything productive.
Perhaps it was written to show how much you know more than anything
else.  More below.

How the name came about is not as interesting as our interpretation of
it within MoQ.  I am presenting it as an analogy.

I am not sure your use of Myth is correct.  Please explain.

this could be an interesting point, but I do not see it.  To make your
response useful and relevant to the rest of us, please explain how
this relates to MoQ.

Cheers,
Mark
