Classically identical particles become quantum mechanically indistinguishable. Satyendra Nath Bose taught us, in 1924, how to correctly count the distinct microstates for the indistinguishables, and for a gas of light quanta (later photons), whose number is not conserved, e.g., can vary with temperature, he gave a proper derivation of Planck’s law of black body radiation. Einstein, in 1925, gen...
