    Experimentalists: understood, say no more.

    Theorists: ok, show me the Hamiltonian…including the noise terms.

    Nah… It’s just that “usually calculations overestimate the experimental values”.

    • Hey boss, we have sincere troubles, SNR is off by too much.
    • how much?
    • 20dB
    • ah, then we’re good, that’s so ridiculous it’s def. a gain problem in your measurement setup

    The funny thing about RF work is how casually a few orders of magnitudes gets thrown around. 10 dB fudge factors for assorted losses are quite common.
