Leibniz - Beltracchi Controversy
Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (philosopher/Mathematician) et al
1. The indiscernibility of identicals. A done deal!
2. The identity of indiscernibles. Jury's still out!
Wolfgang Beltracchi (forger) et al
Even a perfect replica is unacceptable, it's declared a forgery and while the original might've fetched millions, the copy (even one perfect down to each brush stroke, shade of color, etc.) isn't worth a sou!
A penny for your thoughts

In the context of quantum mechanics, two identical particles can't be discerned. One can put no label on them and the one of next moment can be the one before. You simply cannot say the identical particles have a separate continued existence in spacetime.

A, B (2)
A, A (1/2? :chin: ). Set theoretically, no element may be repeated in a set.
Sancta Trinitas Unus Deus. :pray:
I could also have written: 35467 identical particles. That's the strange stuff. Any time you can discern the number of particles, at no time they exist on their own.
Non-set: There may be more than 1 identical particle (a proton, another proton, one more proton). In other words 3 protons (the Son, the Father, the Holy Spirit).
Set: Repetitions not allowed ergo, {proton}, 1 proton/God.
Proton=first
Alpha=omega=Proton
Proton=last
The Father=First
The Son=at Last
The Holy Spirit=Unifying
PPP:
The First, The Last, The in-Between
DUO
Discernable, Undiscernable, One
Thus:
The Holy Trinity=The Holy Duo
3=2
3=1
It follows,
1=2
I knew it!
