We shouldn't believe that our current laws of physics are true, but we should believe that they are asymptotically getting true-er to objective fact.

idk what you mean, it is 6am :)
To weasel my way out of thinking of a measure.. I will consider “objective fact” to be a point in the space of all possible facts about a given question.. and if you plot scientific consensus vs time (for a fixed question) it seems to be tendering toward a single point

you say "toward", so your space is a metric space? :D

Fair.. but I do think we can come up with a space norm between any two possible facts
