I think it’s unfortunate how the headline frames it like the original claim is somehow separate from the observe-hypothesize-experiment-explain loop of science. It’s also bit overconfident IMO - we totally still don’t have a handle on what’s actually going on, even if the evidence for room temperature superconductivity isn’t looking great. There’s still new preprints coming out every day
It's the layman's definition of science. As of [current date] humans know everything, and anything not fitting the current world view is wrong. Often perpetuated by people who are not scientists.
