Nature does not quantize motion? How do you KNOW that? You DON'T
KNOW. You watch your movies and TV and believe you're seeing a
continuous motion, but in fact, as school children learn, you are
seeing a series of frames. You HAVE EVIDENCE that quantification
exists in what you call inertial resistance, the resistance of an
object to be put into motion, and the resistance of a moving
object to stop! Is not the moment before an object being to move
and the moment it moves - a quantity?
