Complements it
1 comments

I think you misunderstand. The work that Einstein did on quantum mechanics was indeed "complimentary", i.e. provided for free as a courtesy. (Although it could be argued he actually got paid for it later with Nobel prize.)
IMHO that interpretation is implausible. "... [theory] doesn't replace, rather [[its creator] provided it for free]"? makes no sense.

It doesn't replace, rather complements it.

Occam's razor AND semantics.

Edit: maybe you were joking? in which case sorry (it missed the mark)

Pretty sure it was a joke.
Very affective explanation.
