    a bare list of references on arguments

    1. (by Connes) that Heisenberg’s original derivation of “matrix mechanics” and

    2. more generally (by Ibort et al.) that Schwinger’s less known “algebra of selective measurements”

    are both best understood, in modern language, as groupoid convolution algebras,

    to be !include-ed into relevant entries (such as quantum observables and groupoid algebra), for ease of synchronizing
