Casimir effect experiments have been run in
a vacuum and proved there is lots of "stuff"
still there even in empty space. There is
no such thing as nothingness, at least not
within the space of our universe.

Ok now yer giving me a headache by explaining an observation on theories
based upon theories base upon theories. In the Casimir experiments, there
are plates or shapes deliberately placed in the vacuum.

Quantum theory goes too far into the theoretical for my taste. It is a
curious mental and mathematical exercise but it reminds me of Leibnitz'
Monad theory of existence. It doesn't help me with antenna performance. Go
there without me.
