Is Pharmacy a dead field?

i mean yeah i agree, i guess first principles is the wrong word but i still dont see how that changes my point. lets put it thsi way of we were archaic humans who suddenly started messing with physics and we tested rock collisions together, we would want an explanation for my previous questions. some more would be at what point actually is contact? as you can get infinitely small distances and still have some space so when does the force actually force them apart? how is the force calculated with objects with different types of shape? in general there is a distinct definition of what the contact force really is aside from literally just an unexplained force that makes things repel each other in an unexplained fashion and all we wouldn't really know is that it works untill we look at the stuff that makes up the objects and understand the actual phenomenon of what causes the force. this is the issue with just saying newtons 3rd law as you are not getting a full picture of why. im not saying that its prefect the scientific method works that way and like you said tomorrow it could all be proven wrong but that doesn't justify not bothering to answer the questions to the fullest we can so we can get a whole picture
