I really hate SF being lumped in with fantasy. Sure, there are some "rules" in fantasy, but they get to make them up. Science has its own rules and good SF had better obey them if it wants to be credible. But when people conflate SF and fantasy, they denigrate the increased discipline that has to be maintained in SF.
