I had not made the connection before, but #Causal-Set-Theory has several profound connections to a resonant #spacetime metric, which of course is its own 'fine tuning' (& just so problems). 1 that jumped out in this video was the relegation to number to a minor role, compared to order (causality).

That really means both kinds of order: sequential & the kind that opposes #entropy. Interestingly, also both kinds (definitions) of volume: intensity (loudness) & 3D area. That relates to fundamental uncertainty regarding the nature of quanta: more # ≠ resonance (A ≠ E). bsky.app/profile/malt...

Amplitude doesn't change the physics of resonance (often called sympathetic), the central finding of the photoelectric effect & surprising enough (w/ #simplifying-assumptions) that a new branch of physics started, rather than reforming the main trunk. Also: www.rp-photonics.com/fock_states....

Fock states

In quantum optics, Fock states are quantum states with fixed photon numbers, including the vacuum (zero-photon) state. They are notoriously difficult to generate and detect.

Simply put: A perfect "sine wave" has 1 #frequency & is infinitely long in time. Or We can draw it w/ the smallest bit of #time & have an infinite # of frequencies. This tragic situation is an artifact of a #measurement-problem which comes in part from forgetting about how basic resonance works.
