Science isn't always better. It's unstoppable - you don't lose ground and you will always inch closer to the truth. But it's the slowest approach. It's usually best to leave it to academics like this rather than applying it daily. (Is there a scientific study to how effective science is in daily work?) I'd recommend reading Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance though. It covers exactly this topic, the advantages of the scientific method, and where philosophical methods can work better.
