I don’t think theoretical physics and the standard model just moved much, so I agree mostly. But physicists and mathematicians have been playing this game of misleading announcements in front of the public for years. There are many things that can be made to sound like theoretical physics has just had a breakthrough: A) Some bound state of fundamental particles is portrayed in language suggesting a new fundamental particle itself. B) A Mathematical problem in constructive / axiomatic quantum field theory has been made more rigorous. This is portrayed as a physics breakthrough. C) Some toy model far off of the real world (e.g. wrong dimension, wrong symmetries, wrong fields, wrong signature) is described as if it were a major breakthrough in the 4 dimensional Lorentz signature physics of the standard model and real world. Etc ————- All of these are to be welcomed by experts. But boy does the public get sold a misleading story. So I think this sounds great. But it sounds like a math result akin to “We can now prove that nothing goes wrong in the quantum field theory thing we were already doing.” At least so far. Still, it’s cool to hear this!
