I think OP doesn't want techno-babble, but coherent and causal interactions of everyday objects in their story.

Mary packed the binoculars in chapter 3, therefore she may use them on the train in chapter 6.

That's cause and effect, not physics.

And it's not technobabble. I like hard sci-fi. I don't pretend to understand every field of tech, nor do so my characters have the same expertise as me. Having an llm with knowledge of basically all fields is helpful.

Cause and effect is one property of physics. I'm not looking for "physics the field of mathematics" but rather "physics the interaction of forces"
