Quantum entanglement, for instance. Symmetry, for another. In fact,
much of quantum mechanics is not well understood.

But what does any of that have to do with the duality of EM radiation?

If we were just in ukra this would be quite permissible thread drift.
Sorry about that.

The issue isn't thread drift, I'm talking about the point of discussion.
FBMBoomer was excusing the misinformation he was taught in the 60's by
his professor, saying QM wasn't well understood. I am making the point
that the duality of light *was* well understood in the 60's.

Rereading FBM's post I see he was saying perhaps this was not well
understood when his professor was taught. That may be true. I don't
know when his professor was taught and that potentially is a wide window.

But Jerry is saying QM has poorly understood aspects which is not
responsive to the original thoughts about duality of light.
