In a purely mechanical method of analysing a single theory, sure - but given the social nature of “peer review”, the question of how theories are made in the first place (is it purely rational, or more of a creative leap of intuition? Watson came up with the DNA double-helix idea after a dream about a spiral staircase), questions of academic funding and how it determines which scientific theories are investigated (and sometimes how they are investigated, and how does introducing money, the pressure for publication, the pressure for tenure and “results” affect the data analysis?), “paradigm shifts”, the current reproducibility crisis etc etc - “science” as an overall process is still a fundamentally human endeavour, carried out by humans and subject to much of the same flaws as the rest of human behaviour.Lurch666 wrote:The scientific method is designed to filter out the 'human bias' by trying to disprove theories and having peer review.

Particle is disobeying the known laws of physics..
Gotta love science, laws of physics being broken again.
