String vibrations would produce different fundamental particles.
“The different vibrations of the strings in string theory... they don't produce different musical tones. They produce different particles.”

String theory largely seeks a unique consistent gravity theory with minimal experimental input.
“string theory has kind of gone all in on that I would say is just trying to, with minimal experimental input, believing that there's only one consistent theory of gravity.”

String-theory leadership concentrated top physicists into one narrow subspecialty.
“that we should all, all the smartest people should pile into one narrow subspecialty and that that was the future.”
