Heh. IIRC this makes the second or third time that newer developments in RL physics theory around wormholes have actually supported how wormholes are described in the setting or the underlying physics that allows for the type of wormholes we describe in the setting.
One one hand this makes sense since our WHs are designed based on RL physics theory. OTOH it is extra cool since RL physics theory (especially in the more cutting edge areas where wormholes play) often seems to me to be a bit like a boiling pot of water with different theories rising to the surface and then sinking down to make way for new theories that may invalidate some part of the older one.
For wormholes of the type that were designed for OA to line up with ongoing developments in RL theory for so long is a testament to the quality of the original work
