I've thought about this myself before so this was an interesting read! I've thought in particular about quantum theories and how they are so hard to reconcile with gravity, and the hierarchy problem. Maybe we do simply struggle because this reality is so distant from the one we experience that we have trouble understanding it. Or maybe it is because we formalized it empirically but we got off on the wrong foot unlike Einstein's part that seems to come together better. Max Planck built his framework, not because he understood why quantum physics is the way it is, but because he observed how it worked. Since it works, we build upon that, what else can we do... So it looks like it's right to build on but we're having the damndest time to move forward. This can be very hard to later backtrack on!
