A theory that is falsifiable is more like a reformulation of the existing theories, and should be judged as such. Heaviside reformulated Maxwell's equations, and we use the new ones because they make things simpler to understand and use. Its not about finding "truth"; its more about finding useful information. However, if a physics theory fails this criteria as well, then it is certainly pointless.
