Identical particles: the ultimate equality
• Permutation symmetry postulate
• Spin-Statistics Theorem (SST)

Disturbing Questions
• No consistent relativistic theory accommodating a statistics violation
• How to compare with other experiments? (Z→γγ, …)
• Constrains from lasers, BBR, static limit ?
Need a generalized E&M theory
