gollark: > About the latter half of the question, the inverse square root law would imply that the rules that generally put down magnetism are removed.What? No. It wouldn't imply that, because galactic orbits run on gravity and have nothing to do with electromagnetism.
gollark: Galaxy rotation just runs on regular gravity-driven orbits like, well, the solar system and whatnot, no? I don't know if your claim about the "inverse square root law" thing is accurate, but it doesn't seem to mean very much.
gollark: What do you mean "galaxies rotations are described using a inverse square root law" exactly?
gollark: Hmm, yes, I suppose stars count, so just "not important in large-scale interactions directly".
gollark: The strong nuclear force is much stronger than electromagnetism, but also not important in cosmology because it's short range.
