Look at those scientists showing off with their fancy "stability of nuclei" while secretly relying on "magic numbers" to explain why certain atomic nuclei are super stable! Nuclear physics isn't supposed to sound like a Harry Potter spell book, yet here we are with these suspiciously convenient numbers (2, 8, 20, 28, 50, 82, 126) that make atoms extra stable. The flex tape can't fix the irony of calling something "magic" while insisting it's pure science! Next thing you know, they'll be waving calculators like wands and calling quantum tunneling "atomic apparition"!
