MM-era understood Aether as underlying and permeating all space and is the
Macroscopic version or view; this may be called superstructure. MM was badly
flawed in its and limited in its approach and understanding of Aether theory and
hence was used to discredit Aether Theory.

ZPE allows one to see into the inherent energetic substructure or the Microscopic
view that the Macroscopic version, superstructure, lies on top of.

Samething, but the Aether has different properties than M-M originally thought, so
it is different on the surface. The understanding of ZPE allows us a slightly
different viewpoint of Aether characteristics and properties.

There are several levels or positions of observation and perception of Aether.
They must all eventually be totally internally consistent and ultimately unify.
Example: The strong force and the weak force in atoms are said to be the same
force under different conditions. The idea is that going from the microscopic to
the macroscopic viewpoints you would see different types of interactions.

Ask yourself what are some of the properties that you would have to have in order
to have an underlying substructure that is energetic and still permeates all
space?
