I think it's important not to make assumptions about what's actually being discovered in this kind of experiment.
It's a little like trying to work out what 'going to work' is and coming up with the observation that we see a shadow being moved from point a to point b every time. Interesting, true, and you don't get one without the other (dark days aside), but I could go off on all sorts of wasted investigations if I assumed that it was a useful observation in answering the question. |
