I know, it really demystifies the whole Uncertainty Principle haze of confusion. After learning that it's just a result of tradeoffs with mathematical measurements, it doesn't seem like such a deep and powerful revelation of the universe.
It should instead appear as a deeper and more powerful revelation of the universe. Just because now you understand it doesn't mean it's not deep, it just means that you are deeper :)
Good thing we can still be baffled by String Theory.
AFAIK, String Theory is still baffling itself; it's more of a mathematical refactoring of previous theories, than a scientific theory, due to the lack of experiments to test the theory.
Why is it a good thing that we're still baffled by String Theory? Suppose we nuke String Theory. There are still a lot of things to be baffled about. Which of those things should get the most attention?
