Except most of sciences take experiment as the criterion of truth rather than logical inference. Real-world science can almost always be expected to be inconsistent - simply because each scientific theory is a "local" approximation, and theories developed for different areas of the same science are not required to be mutually consistent in order to be useful. One (in)famous example is quantum mechanics and general relativity.
