    Supports→The CMC approach is not viable as an approach to quantum gravity

    An approach whose Hamiltonian cannot distinguish genuine temporal evolution from gauge redundancy fails the minimal criterion of recovering classical dynamics in the appropriate limit.

    Key Terms

    Appropriate limit(philosophy and physics)
    A specific condition or boundary where one theory should reduce to or match another theory; for example, how quantum physics should match classical physics in everyday-sized objects.
    Classical dynamics(as used in physics and the history of science)
    The study of how objects move and interact based on forces, using the physics principles developed before modern quantum mechanics and relativity.
    Gauge redundancy(as used in physics)
    When a physical system can be described in multiple different mathematical ways that all represent the same real situation—like how you can describe a location using different coordinate systems but it's still the same place.
    Hamiltonian(Classical mechanics.)
    A representation of the energetic and other properties of a system that characterises its evolution over time.

    Temporal evolution(philosophy of physics and metaphysics)
    The way something changes and develops as time passes; how a system's state transforms from one moment to the next.
