D.H.E.Gross

TL;DR
This paper discusses how Lavenda's concept of 'Qualm' obscures the fundamental physics of non-extensive systems, highlighting issues in understanding complex thermodynamic behaviors.
Contribution
It clarifies the impact of Lavenda's 'Qualm' on the interpretation of non-extensive thermodynamics and emphasizes the need for clearer physical insights.
Findings
'Qualm' obscures understanding of non-extensive systems
Highlights the importance of clear physical interpretation
Calls for revisiting foundational assumptions
Abstract
The smoke (German: Qualm) produced by Lavenda obscures the simple and fundamental physics of non-extensive systems as proposed in [1].
