creativity 4chon myth asian

Given the fact that there is an infinite number of theories possible for any given set of scientific observation and that we don't take the most creative theory, but the simplest, it is absurd to suggest Asians lack creativity. Any idiots can come up with a large number of theories. This belief verges on rational heresy. Indeed, it shows a lack of intellectual refinement and lack of creativity itself ironically. It is worth mentioning that Asian students perform well when tasked to elaborate a theory on high-level international competitions in science. ==================================== elaborating a theory is more akin to solving a problem than making art, thus intelligence is more important than creativity in science. It is more important to understand science and to master it than to do art with it. You don't do art, since creativity isn't a quality that makes a theory good.
