I find it telling that people immediately defend this based on examples from quantum physics, not of a French professor studying medieval literature.

<p>I don’t string theorists (who work in a branch of theoretical particle physics) contribute more than Shakespeare scholars. Furthermore, the knowledge gained by Shakespeare scholars during their research is more likely to make them better teachers of Shakespeare to undergrads than the string theorists’ research is to make them better teaches of classical mechanics.</p>
