All hitherto created object-level theories in physics seem to obey the principle of conservation of energy. A meta-level theory, on the other hand, would be a theory about theories, not objects. For any object-level theory that did not conform to these principles it would have to be ruled out on the basis of violating deeper rules of reality. If this is true then they can help us in the creation of new object- level theories.
We discuss the difference between laws versus principles as elucidated by constructor theory, and why it matters. Constructor theory may be thought of as a 'theory of theories' whose principles constrain other theories. Just as these subsidiary, object-level theories constrain the behavior of physical phenomena, so too constructor theory, as a meta-level theory, constrains the behavior of object-level theories both known and unknown. Constructor theoretic principles can also constrain and solve problems with theories that explain inherently unpredictable phenomena, such as those of biology, economics, and epistemology.
