Physically, its not an asymmetry, it’s an antisymmetry! The more information in the one domain, the less in the other.
But human cognition runs on brains, which run on physics, which seems to treat position and momentum equivalently
It treats the both as real, ontologically. The antisymmetry is epistemological
To us, there is a big difference between a car that is close to us and moving with a high relative velocity (distant in momentum space) and one that is far away and more or less stationary with respect to us.
That’s not how it would work anyway. The trade-off is between levels of precision, not the actual value.
