Logarithmic scales of pleasure and pain are a crucial consideration if true. Mammalian CNS at the very least plausibly represents things across ~5 oom.
Wrt the rest, Korzybski, Englebart, and, I would argue, Quine, dreamed of an uncompleted research program of meta methodology, allowing better understanding of how new methods are invented. More than half of the most cited scientific papers of all time are methods papers, yet the field is understudied.
