when you have "several ways to arrive at the same conclusion", this is
precisely nature's way of telling you that there are deeper connections
to be made if you haven't already made them.  that's just the way nature
works.  any good researcher will tell you that.

whether you're talking about different ways of proving the abel ruffini
theorem or counting states of a black hole using classical, statistical
and quantum mechanical means, or whatever.  there are no coincidences in
nature.

this is what separates people who study math from people who use math.

ok.  this is waaaay off topic.  and i don't have the time or energy for
a sustained debate.  now tell me i'm wrong and then let's agree to
disagree.  ;)
