    In statistics and with arbitrarily questionable assumptions that might be true, but there’s other math.

        On the contrary, fundamental physics has been completely static for half a century. That doesn’t really have much to do with your main point, though.

        I mean, you’re right in statistics, and statistics comes up constantly, but there’s no way to directly prove there’s only 100 prime numbers, for example. In number theory, there’s absolute truths, and a correct proof will inevitably align with them.
