It's interesting to see this, i noticed on many sites there seems to be a large bias towards the wonders of physics over the wonders of chemistry, biology or any other of the sciences.
If i had to guess why, i would say that it has something to do with the huge quantity of celebrity science divulgators that are physicists, in comparison to the other fields. although physics is quite incredible, people use its vast array of uses on all the sciences in a way that feels like undermining, as if physics was the only one needed, as if it alone could capture all the intricate nuances of biological organisms, of the interaction of living things with the world and with themselfs and of the layers of time involved in the forging and molding of countless living beings, separated only arbitrarily, for the sake of measurement.(im into biology by the way lol)
Maybe if i had to guess even further i would say that most people lack a grounding in the philosophies of the sciences, as if they were considering physics as this fact machine that shows you how cool the untouchably big or small can be through the subjective view of an internet entertainer or broadcaster.
i don't know, the very separation of these sciences into fields is arbitrary on its own, we shouldn't have to pick wich one is more useful, or more interesting, or more important overall...
