I read some sort of philosophy of science article that talked about this, but I can't find it now. Its main contention was about epistemology, but from a chaos magick perspective it's impossible not to view science as an accidental formula for omnicide along these lines.

Ah, I found what I was referencing by way of reference to reference to reference. "The Garden of Forking Paths". Think of it in a @gregeganSF'esque sense, where patterns of consciousness permit pathways of travel across heterogenous ontologies via metaphysics.

The more you constrain epistemology, the more you create dead or inaccessible branches in this sense. The far future is a bunch of scientists alone in a dying world everyone else has already exited.
