There really isn't; there is only observation and interpretation as I mentioned to Gae. Of course, if you're just using the word fact to mean something that was observed, there isn't much issue with using that word. The problem is that the word fact carries with it the connotation of being true, immutable, or infallible.
What would be an example of a scientific fact, for example? Even scientific laws are understood to be descriptions, not facts, precisely because a "black swan" could appear at some point undermining the observations described by them.
Quote:In science, a fact is a repeatable careful observation or measurement (by experimentation or other means), also called empirical evidence. Facts are central to building scientific theories.
The only person here who is insinuating notions of absolute certainty and absolute truth is you.
