Notes	voices their concern over the prolonged debates in quantum gravity, specifically between Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) and its critics. They criticize the ongoing arguments between Brian Greene and Carlo Rovelli over LQG's testability, expressing disappointment that these debates have prevented the theory from being falsified or proven. The speaker also mentions the issue of LQG's incompatibility with Lorenz invariance due to the positive-valued and lower-bounded nature of the area operator's eigenvalues. Additionally, the speaker criticizes the academic community for continuing to fund these debates and the trend of inventing new math as theoretical physics. Overall, the speaker expresses their belief that physics is dying due to its inability to make progress on foundational issues.
