A doctor doesn't know every detail about "all of human body" either. That doesn't mean he is not qualified to practice medicine.

The challenge of epistemological nature regarding the statement's epistemological nature is very very much related to it. Try a better excuse.

What makes you think that question is even valid? That reality is something that can be measured in dimensions?

Irrelevant. It still doesn't show that anything is beyond its scope.

If you don't know how big reality is, then you don't know how big your sample size is either. That is, we don't know what the relationship is between the known and the unknown. The known might be a meaningful sample of the unknown, or it might be a completely meaningless sample.
Why is it reason to come to a sweeping firm conclusion based on an unknown sample size?
What, in your deluded mind, makes you think that that is even a valid question? Do scientists ask the questions "what color is the universe" or "how bid is human mind"? Do they study these things anyway? Do you see declarations of size of the sample or the "size of the gamma rays"? Does that make the study meaningless? I think you better study language before you tackle metaphysics.
