What if "Scientific Debts" are the challenges we have for developing new physics?

Crackpot physics

Hello everyone

I am an independent researcher with AI Engineer background. While learning and researching about modern physics, I soon noticed that current physics theories have many human-labels or terms that may no longer reflecting the truth, which I called it "Scientific Debt."

For instance, vacuum is not a void, but the idea of aether has been completely ruled out; “The electron carries a negative charge” is a matter of human convention. etc..

As an engineer, my instinct was to "refactor" these definitions. I’ve spent the last few months developing a framework that treats quantum phenomena as emergent properties of a single substrate rather than a collection of disparate particles. I’ve recently uploaded two papers to Zenodo and would love to get some eyes on these:

  1. The first paper, Topological Quantization from Vortex Ring Stability, focuses on mathematical derivation, aim to prove the possibility of stable vortex rings emerging from a perfect-fluid-like substrate
  2. The second paper, The Ousium Dynamics Framework , proposes a different perspective to provide explanation to quantum phenomena. It assumes a continuum substrate and its different modalities: Laminar, Turbulent, Wave, and Vortex.

Any suggestions or challenges are welcome!
