It’s a reasonable hypothesis that Kant came up with, but until he’s tested it—or at least thought of a way to test it—he should have been more tentative about it.
Really? Why is the fact that you’ve thought of a way to test something a reason to be more confident of it?
I agree that if he had actually tested it that would have been reason for more confidence, but intention to experiment is not Bayesian evidence.
Hmm. What do we mean by weight? Mass * g?
