but the Bohr model isn't just the basics, the Bohr model is junk, it's how we used to think but learned better.

Sorry, it is NOT junk. It is a simple model. Just like our simple model of gravity. Works well every day for millions of us.

Just like our simplified model of light. Lot's of students get along fine with a simplified model of light. One does not have to understand the Schrodinger Wave Theory or be able to calculate mass defects to calculate laser excitation frequecies.

It's not a simple model, the Bohr model is a damned LIE, we KNOW that electrons DO NOT do that, we KNOW there is no nucleus to an atom. LIES aren't simple, LIES are LIES.

No they do not get by fine with a model of LIES. Then they believe lies, believing lies is never getting along fine. You're supporting fake but accurate science teaching. If it's not good enough for Dan Rather it's not good enough for our schools.
