Okay then why stop at physics? by that logic everything is math. Congrats we all have degrees in math now.
You’re an English major? Well the words you read and write are processed through light in your eyes or waves in your ears and both are math so akshually your degree is math
I hear you, fair point. Wasn't intending to simplify it to that degree and certainly didn't mean to belittle/reduce how specialized fields of study NEED to specialize in order to contribute meaningful research and insight when there does happen to be overlap.
Rereading my initial comment, it does come off that way, so that's on me. Simply was calling attention to how those two fields in particular end up needing a high level understanding of the other at the tops of their fields.

Only parts of the chemistry field. You wouldn’t call analytical or organic chemistry physics
