This is only a slight exaggeration and speed-up of the real world. Kuhnian paradigm shifts every week instead of every century, and with median shift being 9 on the Richter scale rather than 6.

I’d argue the reverse. We restrict the range of civilizational activity to make more predictable phenomena more normal. Both math and science would be less useful in the wild. Civilization creates math/science unreasonable effectiveness bubbles.

Physical laws are causation wrapped in math. But causation is the real nut. Why and how does one state of the world constrain other possible states. The nomological order of reality is a puzzle itself. Khun/Feyerabend are too cute by half. Laws are real because causation is real.

What Rosenberg calls the Humean Canvas: any color paint sticks where it lands, any order or pattern of reality is fundamentally compatible... vs. our apparent reality, imbues with a structure of highly non-trivial constraint: the Canvas of Causation.
