Learning about how we measured the g factor of electrons and how closely it followed theory was one of the coolest things. I remember it wasn't exactly the same but very close.
This difference with muons seems so small. It's so many decimal places down and seems so hard to do all this. Is this the route we will have to take to find new physics? Will we need years of experimentation and data with all our experiments just to find these tiny differences? Just seems so daunting.
