The Einstein tensor has zero covariant divergence. Ricci doesn't.
What does that mean?
If you don't know, look it up.
IIRC, the Einstein tensor is derivable from a contraction on the
Bianchi identities of the Riemann Curvature. [...]
Bullsh*t! The Einstein tensor can only be derived from the
Einstein-Hilbert Lagrangian.
This is coming from the same guy that doesn't know how to transform a
domain.
Formal education is often a good cure for ignorance. Stupidity, on the
other hand, is incurable.
