    The two couldn't be more different.

I wouldn't say that. I think in many ways, physics is philosophy guided by experiments, expressed in mathematics. Every answer begs a new question, and many physicists could use some philosophy education. On that note, I wish philosophers that wandered into this realm would realize that without understanding the physics, they cannot ask the most interesting questions.

I agree that the garbage is piled high.

I was specifically talking about this paradox and the UP. Obviously, all science needs philosophy to some extent.
