A question about foundations, or perhaps two:

Do you feel that there is a deep reason justifying why the angular momentum is the quantised variable, instead of x or p, as proponents of cellular automata prefer?

And related to this, why do angular momentum and action have the same units? I guess that is to be understood from the point of view of classical mechanics.
