By following the system. Furthermore, there are multiple scientists following the system and they keep each other honest. If one scientist falls prey to his/her limitations, another (perhaps with different biases and limitations) will expose it. In the end, the truth wins and that's it. Does it really matter if the truth is something you can intuitively understand? You should only need to understand the scientific method and the reliability of it.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
