Ha, during my PhD I always was told I didn't do "real" experiments, fun times...
-
This was from purely empirical people, right?

-
I'm not convinced there is such a thing as purely empirical work. No one collects facts without some framework. That a framework might not be stated formerly and tested for consistency/explanatory power (model exploration) does not really give it virtuous status.
-
Agreed — I was being facetious.
-
Also "virtuous" status. I really hope you didn't think
@chbergma or I think that our work is more "virtuous" than somebody who doesn't do any modelling!? -
Maybe you aren't being fully serious yourself? I'm so confused by the words you've used, so I'll wait for a reply.
-
Not at all. It was an ambiguous word to use. I meant to express sympathy with someone telling you that you dont do "real experiments," and convey my agreement with the idea that experiments on models are valuable
