The irony of privilege on full display! While wealthy people claim "money doesn't matter" (from their mansions) and beautiful people insist "beauty doesn't matter" (from magazine covers), physicists are out here making legitimate approximations to simplify complex problems. In introductory physics, we often ignore friction, air resistance, and other "negligible" factors to make equations solvable. The difference? Physicists actually have mathematical justification for their simplifications, not just convenient personal blind spots! Next time someone with a yacht tells you money isn't important, hand them a physics textbook instead.
