You should not suppose that a philosopher is omniscent. And not even that Physics is trivial. Someone trained as a philosopher understands nothing about quantum mechanics, unless he is also an expert physicist, definitely not enough for a serious discussion with an expert.

So the question is whether a physicist can have trouble arguing with a colleague who knows Kant and Kierkgaard. Obviously knowledge of Kant and Kierkgaard is absolutely irrelevant when discussing physical theories.

Actually, in a century of Quantum Mechanics, no philosopher ever ‘interfered’ with quantum mechanics.
