Theoretical Physicists Get It Wrong

The philosopher of science who knows what they're doing is like the engineer. They understand how it is that combustion and turbines actually work to produce thrust. Einstein did have roughly the right epistemology, but even if he didn't,. He still could have made those same kind of discoveries. It's extremely rare for a single individual to both know how to fly the plane, to do the physics, and also have an understanding of epistemology.
