Axial vectors? Something is fundamentally omitted or there exist unexplored unwelcomed depths. Debate or pontificate? No, Dr. Hossenfelder's Lost in Math. Seek empirical falsification outside your postulates. That is my experiment. Look.
In QFT veritas, in Pyrex sanitas by Alan M. Schwartz
You might be surprised that I agree...
I believe as Feynman taught that one should try vigorously to falsify one's work or to disprove it, before pushing your ideas on others. I tried for some 20 years and found more evidence to affirm than disprove. But I still imagined I must be fooling myself and worked harder to find flaws. I felt like I was lost in Math at times, it is true.
My journey is somewhat like what Haldane described Al, where you come to some insight almost by accident, and then spend years trying to grapple with its significance. I got tired of being scooped too often by scientists with big names, for one thing after another that I had discerned years ago. Then like Sherlock Holmes I said 'with the disproof falsified; my premise however unlikely must be true.'
Maybe there are some unwelcome depths for you to plumb. Someone should look. But enough pontificating for now.
All the Best,
Jonathan

Software affords 3D structure and assembly energy (positive, for atoms bump and bonds are strained). For a polyacetylene core 22-mer hanging 44 9-anthracenyl groups: +752.6 kcal/mole. Explosive decomposition.
The structure below, stereogram, as a 22-mer solves to MINUS 771.0 kcal/mole. Is it a Little exciton really high temperature supercon polymer? "Little was a crackpot." Physics is a theoretic scoundrel. LOOK, then decide.
Dear Alan,
I greatly appreciated your work and discussion. I am very glad that you are not thinking in abstract patterns.
"Do not complain about the problem or erect altars to it, do not ignore it or embrace it for being irresolvable. Uncreate the probl em external to its postulates. Hund's paradox is validated or falsified in one day of analytical chemistry. Challenge the obvious QM flaw. Chain three classes of published experiments: 1)Supersonic vacuum-expanded 2 kelvin rotational temperature homochiral molecular beam;2)Matter diffraction; 3)Microwave three-wave mixing enantiomer ratio detection of the interference pattern. Observing one carefully, hugely insubordinate molecule. Given Hund's paradox falsification, write empirically fertile theory that does not contain it. After all...it has never empirically failed".
While the discussion lasted, I wrote an article: "Practical guidance on calculating resonant frequencies at four levels of diagnosis and inactivation of COVID-19 coronavirus", due to the high relevance of this topic. The work is based on the practical solution of problems in quantum mechanics, presented in the essay FQXi 2019-2020 "Universal quantum laws of the universe to solve the problems of unsolvability, computability and unpredictability".
I hope that my modest results of work will provide you with information for thought.
Warm Regards, `
A chiral center is a cloud of coordinates whose inversion (inside-out and upside-down) is not superposable upon the original solely by translation and rotation (and improper rotation, a footnote). Hund's paradox demands that Shrödinger's box summation of the original wavefunction (absent dissipation) cancels to exactly zero. A stream of incoming left shoes must be outgoing random pairs of shoes, for the intermediate state has zero chiral bias.
I present a molecule whose energy cost of GLOBAL recemization is immense, allowing no kinetics. Tunneling! Now, the death blow. EACH of said molecules EIGHT chiral centers must so racemize, 28 = 256 different output molecules by spatial configuration. Only two of those structures are chemically possible.
Quantum mechanics is dead on arrival. One need not look.
