Laypeople can go ahead and express opinions about physics they don't understand, in exactly the same way a layperson can read HN and then go on to express opinions about the merits of Java vs Ruby without ever trying either language. It's a little bit silly, though.

Wait, is Java point particles and Ruby superstrings, with LISP being quantum fields?

Sure! Any two things I don't understand are equivalent to me!
