OBJ-002: “Unfalsifiable / non-scientific”

Target claim(s)

Any claim presented as empirical while lacking operationalizations, datasets, evidence extracts, and results.

“This can’t be tested. If no observation could count against it, it’s not science; it’s metaphysical storytelling dressed in equations.”

Many frameworks hide behind ambiguity: when challenged, they retreat to metaphor; when praised, they claim scientific status.

Axioms/definitions are not “scientific hypotheses” and should not pretend to be.
The framework becomes scientifically accountable only where it produces typed, testable hypotheses with falsifiers and a validation pipeline.
That is the function of P-08 Validation (T8): define minimal falsifiers, strong signatures, replication plans, and confound controls.

If the framework repeatedly fails to generate test hooks and instead only generates reinterpretations post hoc, it should be classified as non-empirical and treated as such.
