Hennig Genz on Laws, fundamental - Dictionary of Arguments

II 332
Fundamental Laws/Genz: the Fermatian principle (the shortest time, refractive index) is not a fundamental law.
But it can be a model for fundamental laws.
Principle/Genz: from today's point of view, the fundamental laws of nature can be deduced without exception from the demand that a function called the effect of base variables is as small as possible.
Problem: to find out the base parameters and their function.
