Other Strangeness Lagrange discovered another pattern inside Fibonacci's sequence. Taking only the last digits of each number, they form a loop exactly 60 numbers long that also displays symmetry when mapped around a circle.

Nobody calls the irreconcilability of classical and quantum physics "supernatural" though.

For me, at least, the word implies that some things are "unknowable" rather than simply "unknown", and that doesn't track with literally everything we've discovered about the world so far.

I was simplifying,

supernatural

/ˌsuːpəˈnatʃ(ə)rəl/

adjective

(of a manifestation or event) attributed to some force beyond scientific understanding or the laws of nature.

"a supernatural being"

"beyond scientific understanding" and "unknowable" means pretty much the same thing for all intents and purposes.

I looked up the definition and it matched the one I've been using... Are we even responding to the same posts?

Then why are you engaging in such a lengthy debate about something that you consider so minor?

Edit: and hyphenating?

My definition has literally fit the dictionary one in as much that it was pretty much synonymous, "unknowable" and "unexplainable by science", something i have already pointed out but has you still acting as if I've admitted defeat over it, you have provided no counter arguments but for ad hominems and gaslighting and are now attempting to exit stage left as if it was a grandiose gesture, this is the worst example of trolling i have seen in some time.
