  Abian's answer,

  I will answer your question this time.  I do not like your tasteless
  patronizing tone  and I attribute to you what you attribute to me, e.g
 
" your love for flame war;  you are not serious and just want an excuse
  
  to flame "       you just project your intentions.  
   
Naturally, you are  acting according to the dictates of my (A3).  
It makes you feel secure to act that  way.  Just as it makes me feel 
secure to respond to you this way. 
  
  I don't know how qualified you are even to teach - letting alone to
  have the correct judgment "to give or not to give a credit for an
  intelligent reasoning".  I just don't know ! 
    
    If a student came up with my proof of  k/ r^2  I will give him  A+
    The proof is most ingenious and does not require 250 years of
    copious works of 5 geniuses !   I suspect that some people will
    even say that  "they knew that proof -even Eve knew that proof"
   Now as to your question what (A3) has to do in my example-  my
   answer is that (A3) enters into the whole picture in a variety of 
   ways.  
      First and most fundamentally   as a CAUSE of propagation
   of Alight itself (just as the propagation of gravity, magnetism,. etc-
   I do not have the time right now for theses items).  
      
      Why light propagates ?  Because  Space  acting according to (A3) 
   tends to dilute the intensity of light (concentrated at one point)
   (just the same way that water  acts according to (A3) and dilutes the 
   ink drop to feel more  secure, just the same way that General Petain 
   acted according to (A3)in diluting the enemy forces) TO FEEL SECURE. 
      So this is how FUNDAMENTAL (A3) enters in the VERY ACT OF PROPAGA-
   TION OF LIGHT.  Now, after that it is only a logical observation and 
   deduction that the DILUTING PROCESS ( as I explained in my posting) 
   manifests itself by diminishing  the intensity of light propa-
   tional to  r^(-2) , since the area of a sphere  is  4pi r^2.
   
    I am sure if a student gave this explanation to  Einstein  or to
    Newton - both will give him  an A+ .  I suspect  you will flunk
    or give no credit to the student.   Hopefully you will change
    your mind and give him also an A+ !

      With love,                         Alexander Abian
