This is a joke (and a great illustration), but I seriously am strongly opposed to people who advocate not teaching the Bohr model.https://twitter.com/InertialObservr/status/1222030996981215233 …

If you did Cosmos v 3.0, I can see you building up stacks of methods each episode using bathtub type ideas that get you to say a basic appreciation of something esoteric like “black hole surface information” where Tyson would present a parade of Hubble pictures signifying nothing

The question is: what best gets you to "model classically and quantize" in a useful way. I'm OK with Bohr as the first step, but I think Dirac (ie Hamiltonian mechanics with minimal substitution) is ABYSSMAL as the next step.

I'd far rather the next step be a serious course in Measure Theory and Stochastic Processes, with THOSE ideas used as the framework for everything that comes later.
