Do explain how your quote below, invalidates the above:
Separately, what do humans do, beyond observation/measurement?

I have not once, stated anything with certainty.
This is probably because as a human, I can't do any absolute measurements. (uncertainty principle)
So, the "all that can be known to exist" bit appears to be a statement that wants (but can't, as far as uncertainty principle) to describe an absolute condition.

The special pleading is strong in you, Jordan.

Human observation/measurement is non-absolute, for any event, as far as science prescribes..
