Yes, exactly those questions, and others of the family. Things we can describe yet cannot yet explain - and “yet” is doing some heavy lifting there. Perhaps some things cannot be explained from our reference frame.

I got sucked into the infinite perspective vortex from the cosmology angle - a grandmother with a vast collection of pulp sci fi and clear skies over her canal boat. And yes, magnets, what is this devilry and why will nobody tell me how it works?

Upon discovering said imponderables I moved to the woods instead - building infrastructure of all varieties from the ground up, playing with hydropower, that sort of thing - and of course EE gets jammed in all over the place, and when I can get away with something simple and analogue, I do.

I build things because the alternative is spending tracts of time staring into the abyssal fact that explanation is always ultimately internal to the system being explained.
