Necessarily not real

From Gnomon Chronicles

Context: "Physicist 120 years ago: Maybe the inside of an atom is like plum pudding. / Physicist today: Light doesn’t experience time. All this shit might not even be real."

Context: "That was how most chemists and physicists thought about atoms back then. They were useful models/descriptions, but not necessarily real"

Everything is necessarily not real.

Sincerely,
Buddha
