a wave function is just a mathematical model of the electron

now too many people do not understand that having the partial success
of
predictions according that model does not put them in th eposition of
knowing
everything about the electron!!

iow it is just a *partial model*
that partial model (together with the pompous illusion that they know
now everything
about it
was resulting the false mathematical ) conclusion that:

'the electron is a 'point particle'
i was in a time where all the 'experts' preached undoubtedly and
abusing anyone
who dared to say that the electron cannot be a 'point particle'
it was alike people like me and others who indicated that
'a point particle for the electron is physics nonsense!!

one of my new breakthrough arguments against it was :

' a point particle cannot annihilate itself''!!
a point is the smallest possible entity
so the smallest cannot become something smaller!!

just simple commonsense that took too long to understand by
'intelligent people'
to understand.
and BTW the photon' is as well not a 'point particle'
it is a conglomeration of some smaller physical entities (unknown yet
but the above physics sense tels it obviously!!)
