Alternatively, scientific problems might have got a lot harder! Compare the sheer amount of maths needed to understand quantum mechanics compared to something like gravitation.
(and I’m assuming you’re taking into account inflation etc.)
As far as I know, general relativity isn’t any mathematically simpler than quantum mechanics is.
I think in context bryjnar meant simply Newtonian gravity.
Yep.
You ought to compare it to quantum field theory, not to non-relativistic quantum mechanics.
