Abstract

It is argued that the difference between particles obeying quantum and classical statistics lies not in the particles but in the single-particle states: quantum states are discrete and classical states are dense. The classical limit is the limit of the density of states becoming infinite, making the underlying quantum symmetries invisible. Maxwell-Boltzmann statistics for identitical and indistinguishable classical particles follow trivially.
