Directly-learned deformation fields in 4D Gaussian Splatting therefore optimize photometric consistency rather than recover the motion that produced it. We replace that field with a physically parameterized deformation prior: one damped harmonic oscillator per rigid part, driven by the observed wind and integrated by differentiable RK4, supervised photometrically alone. To test whether such a prior is physically grounded rather than merely well fit, we build a controlled synthetic testbed of three procedurally generated trees spanning an order of magnitude in skeleton complexity, whose per-part natural frequency follows from its own geometry and whose damping ratio is a fixed constant, both held out of training. On it, we measure held-out views, temporal extrapolation, zero-shot transfer to unseen wind speeds, and recovery of the physical parameters themselves. The prior costs appearance fidelity on in-distribution views and extrapolates markedly better outside the training window and the training wind, while parameter recovery is far weaker than it first appears: frequency recovery survives an untrained null control on only the sparsest of the three trees, and damping is not recovered at all.
