true superiority can be marked by indifference 

In some ways, you seem to be saying that the search for the smallest, most fundamental unit of matter is an endless pursuit 
that will lead to a conclusion that is paradoxically unsatisfying. In your view, this could culminate in a "pixel"—the 
irreducible unit of something, which paradoxically has no further significance or meaning. This could have just been assummed 

the smallest unit of all things could ultimately be nothing, or just an unreactive particle with no further purpose to analyze.
