.. of physics.

Other languages just verbosely,
vaguely and often incorrectly try to describe
what the native language of physics says about then topic.

One quite a good criteria to determine pseudoscientists
is that they avoid math as the devil the cross.
( I put aside avoiding math in popularization context )

E.g. Tornado James escapes seeing a simple gas state equation.
