software engineering is a younger discipline, we don’t have hundreds of years yet. You seem to think that our understanding of CPU operation or distributed systems isn’t based on physical truth and rigorous testing. Also a programming language or library or whatever has often been deployed by tens of thousands of organizations, across tens if millions of deployments, across trillions of discrete times the code path has been hit, and we know how it acts. That’s rigorous in its own way
