Fundamental Physics:
Gauge symmetry is ignored
Quantum field theory is dismissed as "inefficient"
General relativity is "corrected" without understanding why it works
Methodology:
Fitting post-hoc (choosing w=2, δ=√5 because they work)
Cherry-picking successes, ignoring failures
Claiming "derivation" when actually doing curve-fitting
Epistemology:
Extraordinary claims (universe is 3D because of geometry) require extraordinary evidence
Numerology vs physics: just because √5 appears doesn't make it fundamental
Experimental tests: the mφ prediction is already falsified
