When a physicist speculates, and someone points out that implies a sign reversal in ohms law, "oh well, I'll try again later". There's an immense collection of constraints based on experimental results that they try to respect.
When a philosopher speculates, and someone points out a problem with the theory, welcome to the wonderful world of sophistry and logical fallacy, would you like your ad hominem attack flame merely well done or extra crispy? Usually with a trendy side dish of political correctness and authoritarianism. Not to mention the typical attitude of "experimental results, who needs em?"

See e.g. Krauss's speculations that I mentioned above. What you say about philosophy is just a caricature. At least point to specific philosophers or specific articles.
