JP sez: At spr they are quite careful about allowing anything that
might be considered speculative. I don't see any reason not to
introduce the topic, but you may find yourself simply stirring up a
vibrant lack of interest :).

JP sez: There's just a whole bunch of people who are convinced that
electrostatic energy is stored on the plates, (surely not in the
vacuum!) even though it is plain that energy cannot be stored in 2
dimensions. They are willing to equate cause and effect in D = E.
Taking their standpoint though, the vacuum IS indisputably empty. It
would take a whole lot of physics (and imagination) to firstly suppose
that energy really can be stored in a vacuum, and to accept the
surprise when we find out how this trick is pulled off, there being no
charge in the vacuum, and then to be willing to accept a second space
jammed with pairs, all to make this permittivity become real, but
unfortunately, all at the behest of someone who, with 95%*
probability, is just another crackpot.
* (just an estimate).
I am heartened by your faith in the scheme, but I don't know if I have
told the story the right way.
