What scaling? <shrug>

In this case, [G], the Einstein tensor, is written in its spherically
symmetric polar coordinate system. So, what translation and what
rotation? <shrug>
The field equations are discussed quite a bit. Not too many have
brought up the subject on how the Christoffel symbols are derived
since the Christoffel symbols are the basic building blocks to the
field equations. In fact, among physicists, the Christoffel symbols
are worshipped as a divine deity. Even fewer physicists nowadays
understand how the Christoffel symbols are derived, and you cannot
find a non-circular derivation in the textbooks any more. Fcvking
sad, no? The following tells what the scientific communities are
practicing. <shrug>
