gollark: You can prove that "in some physics model, energy is conserved"; you can't *prove* "this is the physical model the universe obeys", only show it's really really unlikely that it does anything else in the situations you test.
gollark: Yes. Our models and physical theories are derived from reality. We do not create reality with our models.
gollark: Current physical evidence is overwhelmingly in favour of it being globey. That doesn't mean that we have *proven* it must be a globe.

gollark: It *cannot be proven* that this holds in all situations ever, because this is a statement about reality and not our models.
