I’ve been arguing this for awhile. Einstein has even stated that his scientific work would be impossible without musical inspiration. Further his “thought experiments” are closer to philosophy and imagination than physics. He only learned the physics he needed to fulfill his curiosities/imagination.
I think you’re making the assumption that I believe it’s new (if I’m interpreting your response correctly). I can both argue for it and understand it’s not a new idea. I think the more important thing is to continue having the discussion and emphasizing the importance of both like the article does.
