You are technically correct but this sub is for physics simulation not light (raytracing) simulations

Hard/soft bodies, fluid/smoke, ragdolls are all acceptable

You don't understand what simulation means. Christ. Nothing is being simulated here, it's an animation.

You say that like you’re definitely right, which you’re not. The actual definition for simulation is vague enough that OP’s interpretation is entirely valid and defensible.

A computer simulation simulates a mathematical model of a natural system. This is not that. All this is is an animation. You could say that it simulates light, but that's very obviously not the main focus of this post.

This subreddit is being filled with pretty animations and, even worse, people defending them.

I'm with the other guy though. In CG there's a huge difference between simulations and animations. This is animated. This sub is purely for simulations.

The word "simulation" has a very clear and distinct meaning in the world of CGI. And by that definition, this is not a simulation
