Of course a fair point, but I think it's worth considering that basic physics was conceived quite a bit longer ago than the idea of CO2 as a greenhouse gas began to spread. So physics has had quite a bit more time to settle and for people to prove it incorrect (which they haven't), while the reasoning for cause(s) of planetary warming is really still in its infancy, however sure many people think they are.
