Abstract

We show that thermodynamic uncertainties do not preserve their form if the underlying probability distribution is transformed into an escort one. Heisenberg's relations, on the other hand, are not affected by such transformation. We conclude therefore that the former uncertainty cannot be as fundamental as the quantum one.
