it is basic biology, ie biology simplified to teach a kid in middle school. the thing is sciences don’t stop at middle school level. a lot of university education is about clarifying that things you learned before were simplified to the point that they’re practically useless if not outright wrong.
To be fair light does travel in straight lines, its not lights fault if a straight line in physical reality doesn’t always happen to match up with the geometry we invented.

Light travels in straight lines, next year its a wave and then its particles. What you said isso true about uni rethreading.

Tap for spoiler
You don’t technically need particles! Meet me next week for more hot physics takes nobody needed.
