Scholastic universe description assumes its global parity. This assumption imply that fractal character of nature has no total scope. There is only one exception at sub-atomic level. This paper propose to assume universal fractal character and search for consecuences.

Quantum electrodynamics (QED) is considered the most accurate theory in the history
of science. However, this precision is based on a single experimental value: the
anomalous magnetic moment of the electron (g-factor). An examination of the history
of QED reveals that this value was obtained in a very suspicious way. These suspicions
include the case of Karplus & Kroll, who admitted to having lied in their presentation
of the most relevant calculation in the history of QED. As we will demonstrate in this
paper, the Karplus & Kroll affair was not an isolated case, but one in a long series of errors,
suspicious coincidences, mathematical inconsistencies and renormalized infinities
swept under the rug.
