Re: observer/subject independence - I was reintroduced to this today:

Relational Quantum Mechanics

But going back to separating something like Geometric Unity from a typical Gish gallop, this article:

Once again: A misguided article on why the theory of evolution is obsolete
https://whyevolutionistrue.com/2022/06/29/once-again-a-misguided-article-on-why-the-theory-of-evolution-is-obsolete/

is a good response to the Guardian article. I confess to thinking working scientists actually *do* use the word "Darwinist" to describe themselves. But I now guess it's an artifact of ... outreach? ... publicity? ... "antidisciplinarity"<https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/08956308.2017.1373047>? ... whatever you want to call it.
