So I joust found this brilliant scientific paper called “Replication of Quantum Factorisation Records with an 8-bit Home Computer, an Abacus, and a Dog” which mocks quantum computer researchers for optimising factorisation of prime numbers in a way, so that it is as easy as possible to calculate them with a quantum computer. While you may not understand the technical or mathematical explanations they include a lot of jokes and its very funny to read. One of the jokes is,that they call quantum computers a “physics experiment”, which is the explanation behind this joke.

    No its saying, that researches should not invent arbitrary problems that look god when solving them, without actually doing the real problem.
