Well, I certainly cannot defend the whole scientific
community, I wouldn't know. But there is no such thing as
perfect information, no matter how advanced our measurements
are there is always uncertainty, accuracy and precision are
very important and somewhat elusive, that's basic physics.
Anomalies are expected to arise, the idea is that if we
repeat processes we will find trends that could be described
using a relatively simple mathematical description. When we
have that, practical uses come afterward.
Keep in mind though, there are people that are called
scientists that are generally not widely accepted by the
scientific community. Particularly people who don't use
double blind procedures.
I guess I do wonder though, why it is that we assume the
underlying nature of everything to be somewhat simple.

Mappatazee, I think "ordo inveniendi" translates to
something like "Entering the order". Order in the sense of a
religious order, so it can also mean their rules.
