Until someone makes something up that is a better fit yes I know the very dismissive scientific method to anyone without a piece of paper and many with a piece of paper society tell this world about that falier to communicate how brilliant you are for having a piece of paper and sticking by the consensus never daring to step from the crib held by the shoulders of giants. With this stature vs real science issue it's only going to get worse. If we are to keep up with machine intelligence in the future we will need to be more creative and explore with a wider range of creative approaches to deal with incompleteness of it all.
Making shit up is exactly what we need to help. Much stuff made up will be inadequate but some critical reasoning and further research will improve the situation.
