Intuituvely, I feel that there should probably be a large number of mathematical entities that have symmetries that correspond to those of the Standard Model, plus some spares. Continuing in that vein, I think that the elegance of this new theory is due in part to the relatively small number of spares. The fact that Lisi had to use the most complicated Lie algebra is only mildly concerning, given that. But theories are only as good as their successful predictions, so let's see what new particles Lisi's theory requires, and whether we can find them with the LHC. :-)
