Interesting Q someone asked: quantum electrodynamics has an obvious classical theory it corresponds to, but quantum chromodynamics and electroweak theory don’t—why’s that? Possible answer: there’s electromagnetism in daily life, but no strong or electroweak force

Yep, but this is not a realistic model because it’s so strongly coupled in real life right

Right, but to Zach's point there does exist a classical limit of QCD (when QCD is weakly coupled).. We just don't have a fundamental field theory of quarks that's weakly coupled below the confinement scale. If we did, and it was well defined, that too would have a classical lim
