A note on soft topological spaces

This paper demonstrates the redundancies concerning the increasing popular ``soft set" approaches to general topologies. It is shown that there is a complement preserving isomorphism (preserving arbitrary $widetilde{bigcup}$ and arbitrary $widetilde{bigcap}$) between the lattice ($mathcal{ST}_E(X,E),widetilde{subset}$) of all soft sets on $X$ with the whole parameter set $E$ as domains and the powerset lattice ($mathcal{P}(Xtimes E),subseteq$) of all subsets of $Xtimes E$. It therefore follows that soft topologies are redundant and unnecessarily complicated in theoretical sense.
