Let's Lie: a miraculous haul of fishes

In the recent literature, several equations have been studied with purported new approaches because the authors claim that these equations were not amenable to exact treatment using known methods. But we show that all these equations have sufficient Lie point symmetries to make them integrable by quadrature, if not linearizable. When one gets a “miraculous haul of fishes,” namely, exact methods of solution, first integrals, even linearization, then Lie symmetries shall be found. Lie group analysis was and should still be considered an essential tool for anyone who wants to solve equations of relevance in physics and other scientific fields.
