High Physics primarily refers to Quantum Mechanics and General Relativity.\r

\n

Special Relativity is undoubtedly important, but can generally be understood outside the context of High Physics.

Also, it is in-disputed that Quantum Computers today do no non-trivial computing. Some \"Quantum Annealers\" do non-trivial computing, but there is a meaningful distinction of terms here. \u2699\ufe0f In general, if someone says All A are X, and a counterexample is provided of B are A; B is X; therefore not all A are X, one must make sure there is no sleight-of-hand in the definition of B.

Quarks are fake.\r

It is the rejection of the axiom the atom is made of protons, neutrons, and electrons -- each indivisible.\r

\n

Maybe they do exist. So what?\r

\n
\n

So what are High Physics? We provide samples.\r

\n

Low Physics - the Six Simple Machines.\r

\n

Medium Physics - electromagnetism.\r

\n

High Physics - general relativity
