Magic crystals and Nobel Science rules

As one Nobelist retracted her Science paper, another Nobelist has stealthily corrected his. The correction opens new dimensions of probabilities and is indeed best kept hidden.

Nobelists are not role models. They are often unscrupulous, greedy and unpleasant old men.
Some Nobelists are very bad scientists. Some are outright science frauds.
