except that they make such a big point about attaching it to real science and bring up real theories and endlessly misapply them.

If they called it the Dingley Effect  and use Luteceronics to manipulate the Space Ether it would be much better and vague so you could simply accept the bullshit they are shovelling out and get on with th estory.

Instead all thsi pseudo-science  hyped as much as Columbia somehow being represenative of 1912 America   (even more fantasyland than the attempts to link it to science).

Its a con-job, actually a cheat as they dont even have to make anything up just regurgitate a few phrases and buzzwords from real things -- NO IMAGINATION REQUIRED - no SKILL of real fiction which has to make pre-existing/reused/copied  things fit together logically.
