I don't think I need to know anything about them apart from the fact that there is a compromise in x,y ?

Just know that electrons cannot have all 4 quantum numbers the same (for example one being spin --> but you don't need to know any of these quantum numbers). This explained the max number of electrons in each shell, and provided a quantum explanation for the position of the first 20 elements in the periodic table. Further, pauli was able to use his work with quantum numbers to explain the ZEEMAN EFFECT.
