If you’re going to decide whether to use Newtonian physics or general relativity for some everyday situation, you don’t decide based on which theory makes the correct predictions near a black hole, you decide based on which is easier to use while still giving usable results.
A true enough analogy; but when you’re trying to figure out whether Newtonian or Aristotlean physics is better for some everyday situation, it’s nice to have general relativity to refer to, so that it’s possible to figure out what GR simplifies down to in those everyday cases.
Hard cases make bad law.
