While it may be true that a super fluid is frictionless, it would be wrong to say that it would continue to stir if placed in cup and stirred. It will eventually slow down due to the friction against the wall of said cup.

Basically a superfluid is a bunch of molecules/elements whom under the right stressors have a main goal to keep their distance and respect the space of other molecules/atoms in the hopes the same courtesy is reciprocated thus creating what we observe as a super fluid. If there ever was a case for minding your own business scientifically, this would be it
Wait wait wait, you can’t just say “space-time might be a superfluid” and not elaborate how that scales, like points in space-time are frictionless? Or multiverses are? Or like the fabric of space-time is actually a superfluid? Or everything down to quarks or strings are frictionless and don’t interfere with each other? I need an answer
Oh my god, wait. . . if space time is a superfluid, does that mean Dark Matter is a superfluid? Being frictionless WOULD explain why it barely interacts with anything . . .
*"All liquids tend to climb the wall of the container they're in"* > 3:09 < Wrong, the direction of the meniscus depends upon whether the molecules of liquid are more attracted to themselves, or the container they're in.

Some time ago I covered a bowl in alluminium foil just for decoration purposes, but after I filled it with water the water started to 'climb' the alluminium foil and leaking on the table! Why??
