Amyloid-beta Aβ42. Red blood cells viable on the order of 42 days. Embryonic neural thresholds spoken of near 42 days. Gamma-band oscillations often cited around 40 to 42 Hz.
These are different sciences. They do not prove a single law. They are allowed to sit in one room as a pattern of edges, held abductively, not as a sealed diagnosis of matter.
