This place has lots of world class thinkers but is heavily overburdened with title janitors and tone police.
This is an actually interesting development but there’s zero discussion of it and 50 comments that want to split hairs about whether conclusions reached by simulations count as evidence or not.
Science discussion here is often lacking. I'm not sure where the right forum is for that :P
I think the topological bond analysis is actually really cool, and I think it might have wide-reaching implications in the study of liquids. I wonder if you looked closely at liquid phases without "long-range order", if you might occasioanlly see something resembling order if you looked through this lens rather than through the radial density function.
Your own comment also fails to discuss the topic, instead adding yet another opinion to the meta-topic "evidence" debate (that it is "splitting hairs").
