I don't think it has been "proven" to be true yet -- but it works for now, so hey... we use it 🤣
Perhaps a bit off topic, but a friend of mine recently submitted a paper that shows hints the strictly cascading notion of turbulence may actually be misguided: https://arxiv.org/abs/2011.07455

As someone once said: if you can't explain something to a six year old, you don't understand it yourself.

If you can adapt your explanations to your audience then you're obviously understanding it properly yourself. =D>

A bit like the response to the admonition "get on with it, it isn't rocket science!": rocket science is easy, rocket engineering isn't. 8)
