Re: What makes you think N#3 is correct?



Doesn't a gravitational two body problem have the same problem? We're
just more willing to ignore the 'gravitons'.

N3 envisions only interactions between two, otherwise isolated bodies. N3
is at most ambiguous in multi-entity interactions. The more fundamental
model of momentum conservation applies to all these situations - N3 is a
corollary for the special case of a two-body interaction.
