Why would you use a classical model to describe a quantum system? That's the kind of wordplay that those articles do, and almost identical to my example about materials. It's entertaining, but meaningless.

OC: Is it broken?
Me: No, they make generous interpretations to claim that it's broken.
You: With a generous interpretation, they can be said to break ...
Like I said, we're not having the same conversation.
