I find articles like this both incredibly interesting but perhaps even more confusing.

It must be because the complex math underlying these findings can not accurately be expressed in human language.

The further down the theoretical rabbit hole you go, the more so even high-level discussions probably need a general comfort with the field.

Discussion about these soft particles, zero-energy photons and gravitons, being added to a vacuum changing its state out to infinity is pretty fascinating. I would have liked him to explain a little more in-depth how one of these particles could have no energy but still have a spin, though I imagine that's left to the reader to go find the papers that define it.
