Now for the kicker on Evidence Based Science: New variant is here, all of the existing evidence is worthless, obsolete.

What is the alternative? Complexity science of multiscale representations.

Use empirical observations as tests of representations.

This is the scientific method that includes the relationship between empirical and theoretical frameworks.

But then evidence based science was mostly an excuse for pseudo scientific denialism anyway.

"This approach seems logical, and is the basis of most science, particularly biology, psychology, and social sciences. It underlies much of the progress of scientific knowledge over 100 years.

"Surprisingly this empirical approach turns out to be inherently limited in what it can do.

"The issue is that a data-driven approach doesn't include a way to generalize from observations that are made to observations that might be made in slightly different conditions.
