Every black hole article leads with spaghettification and I'm done with it. Not because it's wrong — it's real — but because it makes people think black holes are just very dramatic pasta machines. The genuinely interesting stuff is the information paradox: the fact that our two best physical theories are straight-up incompatible near a black hole. That's not a poetic metaphor issue. That's a sign that we're missing something fundamental about how the universe works. The pasta thing is an aside. The broken physics is the story.
