I think there is also something about how other than raw math, we may not even possess the tools to detect some of the more esoteric interactions (which can make it seem like 'phlogiston'). If something interacts at a resolution finer than the Planck length, would we even know?
Oh, yeah that stuff's snake oil. I'm not talking about any of that

That IS what I’m talking about. I think quantum science gets away with waaaaayyyy too much snake oil passed off as “well, we can’t really know, so please certify my paper because hey nobody can ever know so Truth is as good as Lies now”

Like, I feel like so much hard science is flowing into phlogiston across all spectrums or research. “Don’t know it? NBD. Just say you can’t know it as a principle and click publish.”

What I want is “we know almost nothing. here’s some absolutely provable stuff. some people have lots of theories on the rest, but we are working every day to solve these problems” vs “don’t know can’t know NOBODY WILL EVER KNOW done PUBLISH!”

And I think I just realized a good way to express my issue. Imagine if, during the Moonshot, scientists had put out papers saying “I’ve just discovered the Space Has Impossible Tendrils theory — it cant be done!” And scientists quit trying and explored the reality of SHIT Theory
-
And scientists just shrugged and said “well. SHIT Theory says space travel is impossible. And we haven’t gone to space yet, so, eh.” ?
