Reduction of flow compressibility with the corresponding ideally invariant helicities, universally for various fluid models of neutral and ionized gases, can be argued statistically and associated with the geometrical scenario in the Taylor–Proudman theorem and its analogs. A “chiral base flow/field,” rooted in the generic intrinsic local structure, as well as an “equivalence principle,” is explained and used to bridge the single-structure mechanics and the helical statistics. The electric field fluctuations may similarly be depressed by the (self-)helicities of the two-fluid plasma model, with the geometry lying in the relation between the electric and density fields in a Maxwell equation.

There may still be a little vagueness in the phrase “statistically identical,” which would, then, require extra elaboration: we can imagine that each (g) CBF of the “gas” for modeling the turbulence actually represent an ensemble of (g) CBFs whose statistics are identically specified (partly) by at least the energy and helicity spectra here, say.

This would correspond, in the context of the loose analogy with GR, to studying the transformation to eliminate the local connection to obtain the locally inertial frame, which to the best of our knowledge (cf. Ref. 51) has neither been well performed in GR.
