We might have different things in mind with “intellectual inquiry”; depth is important. The first one seems like a seed of something that could be interesting. Phenomenology is the best data we have about real minds.
But mainly I made that comment because I don’t see insights from physics being “obviously applicable to working on alignment”. (This is maybe a controversial take and I haven’t thought about it that much and it could be stupid. I might also do accounting different, labeling more things as being “really math, not physics”.)
