That's basically the whole point of the scientific method and that's how it evolved during the Renaissance when we went from philosophers and logic to scientists and experimental data. Few scientists have the delusion that our theories are anything but crude aproximations of the real world, each requiring extensive caveats and each with its own domain, outside of which they're useless (i.e. Newtonian mechanics is useless for high velocities and relativity is useless at the quantum level).
