mathematical model - pseudoscience

• _8091149529 4y ago
  I agree with parent (despite the downvotes), there's an ontological mismatch in the title. Mathematical constructs by themselves cannot reveal truths about the physical world. Instead: Mathematical model confirmed by experiment. Or: Old observations elucidated by mathematical model.

    That's some nice philosophizing, but maybe you should read and understand the paper before dismissing it flippantly: https://journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/article?id=10.1371/journal.pcbi.1010607 https://journals.plos.org/ploscompbiol/article?id=10.1371/jo...

    I'm not sure I understand, would you say Kepler's laws and the ideal gas law are pseudosience?
