Quantum Mechanics Started with Semi-Empirical Phenomenology –  Important Lesson

    It should be noted that ‘theory of everything’ is a very special new type of high theoretical creation recognized by experts as beautiful and not excluded by data. Probably it needs additional semi-empirical ideas (dark matter and other practical problems are not major predictions). But if it will happen that this theory’s magic power can solve practical problems, e.g. enables calculation of mu-e mass ratio, it would be a revolution in the intellectual civilization because it would mean that reality can be independently created mathematically by human mind, and objective data are somehow entangled with that creative mind.

    But until this happens, particle physics should rather accept semi-empirical frontier ideas.          

    The most profound Nature supported low energy physical theory at present time is quantum mechanics. It is not fully symmetric, not causal and not fully understandable. It appears most useful for contemporary and likely foreseeable science and technology, it enables the highest technologies to date e.g. Artificial Intelligent and LHC.  

   As lesson, QM first appeared not by solving then known theoretical physics fundamental problems, but by initial semi-empirical phenomenology of Plank, Einstein, de-Broglie, Rutherford, Bohr and others, related particularly to particle-wave duality.

    That lesson from QM may suggest that the solutions to the basic inner physical problems of SM - most likely the enigmatic flavor physics ones related to SM many free parameters  – may come not from new symmetries, which are searched for decades and virtually imply no fundamentally new physics, and not from ‘theory of everything’, but from indications of initial semi-empirical phenomenology related for example to unpublished, but open to read freely at internet publications (ResearchGate and others), flavor-geometric duality rule for SM mass and mixing hierarchies, or something close.
