Why simulate relativity when Newtonian mechanics requires simpler math, and therefore fewer computing resources?

Mr Swinney depicted himself as a stern advocate of Newtonian cause and effect physics.
Modern thinking is the enlightenment thinking that ended the Dark Ages and ushered in Newtonian science.
He thought far beyond the erudite world of math theorems and the Newtonian wars of calculus theory.

That, Dr Koechlin reckons, gives Fresnel optics a big advantage over Newtonian ones.
The Newtonian physics allow us to make trains but same physics is not able to calculat the exact position of electron.

It may well be that using Newtonian physics mis-states the speed of a crashing car by some fraction of an inch per hour.
In that case, though, physicists will have gained a better understanding of how the predictions of general relativity mesh with Newtonian gravity in the case of galaxies.
Via astronomer Salman Hameed at Irtiqa, this encouraging item from the Express Tribune about a young student in Okara, Pakistan, who built his own Newtonian telescope from scratch.
Newtonian physics is a simplification of our visible world that worked until advanced scientific techniques allowed scientists to conceive of quantum theory as an explanation of how our universe works.

When Dr Koechlin and his team pointed it at Mars they could distinguish that planet's two tiny moons a task which would require a Newtonian telescope with a mirror at least 30cm across.
And it is this shift in balance which has resulted in a silent transition, flipping from an environment which was far more predictable, Newtonian and laminar, to a turbulent and more complex new world.
What Rushkoff and Malik are describing is a new experience of physics for humans, more akin to magic or at least quantum mechanics than to the classical Newtonian physics on which the modern world was based.
