Why is "Jerk" Rarely Seen in Core Physics Equations?
Exploring the physical mechanisms and mathematical logic behind the absence of higher-order spacetime derivatives in fundamental equations of motion, analyzed through the second-order closure of ordinary differential equations, the symplectic geometry of phase space, and the local instantaneous response in field theory.
