| Dec 10, 2019 at 8:46 | comment | added | JustABitOfCode | @ACuriousMind, I don't believe this is a duplicate because the other similar questions concentrate on gravity modelling curved space and don't contrast gravity with the other 3 fundamental forces. | |
| Dec 10, 2019 at 8:41 | comment | added | JustABitOfCode | @probably_someone Thanks for your comment. I guess what I'm trying to say is that names are important because we ascribe meanings and definitions to them and therefore expectations, so I wouldn't give it a name "just because". Especially in this case where we're putting something in a group and that thing has clearly different characteristics from the other things in the group. | |
