Admin1: There is a difference between meaning and quantity.
Doctor Gravytee: Alphysics is about experiment and quantity. Philosophy is about meaning.
A1: Alphysics is hard science where things are measured. Alphysicists do not waste time on polemical discussions such as meanings of symbols.
Dr. G: There is no reason to discuss meaning. Any symbol means whatever we say it means.
A1: Yet, quantity and meaning are related.
Dr. G: Meaning is quantity. Each quantity is a single definition of a symbol.
A1: Semantic alphysics comes before theoretical alphysics.
Dr. G: Theoretical alphysics comes before semantic alphysics. Alphysics is science. Everything else is not.
