Physics students know this pain! The classic "ideal situation" - where air resistance magically disappears, surfaces have zero friction, and cows are perfect spheres. The left side represents real-world engineers screaming about practical considerations while theoretical physicists calmly sip tea on the right, unbothered by such trivial concerns as "reality." First-year physics is basically a fantasy novel where everything happens in a vacuum and nothing ever slows down. Theoretical physicists don't ignore air resistance because they can't calculate it - they ignore it because they're too busy enjoying their frictionless utopia!
