I agree that certain axioms can be verified or disproven, but larger questions remain arguable in both science and the humanities (if those can be truly separated). For example, you can verify that a linked list works, or that an operation is associative... but when you zoom out and look at whether or not a codebase with millions of lines of code is successfully doing what it sets out to do... The act of assessing that is similar to assessing Milton's motivation for his depiction of limbo. The interpretations defy a single right or wrong answer.
