In which I expound on a very petty complaint about fictional wormholes.
Unsure where to safely step forward. The bending boundary bits look terrifying.
Yeah, I expect the tidal forces and whatnot are, shall we say, not negligible in practice.
I thought stargates were explicitly not wormholes. For one thing, they're one-way.
Yeah, even if a wormhole is involved, the "surface" is some local magic machinery designed to make the trip survivable and ensure you pop out in the right shape on the other side.
