Now that I think about it, shouldn’t some Hogwarts students and/or teachers have figured out that they should be studying Muggle science? It’s possible that this was mentioned, and I’ve forgotten it, or that (since EY probably won’t write sequels, the subject will need to be left to fanfiction of HPMOR.

It hasn’t been, except for Harry’s suggestion in the latest chapter. Most people, though, still haven’t been exposed to any noteworthy Muggle science except individual “clever tricks” as used by Harry—nothing to compare with the obvious power of magic.

I didn’t give a time frame for when Harry’s lie will fall apart. :-)
I can hope that the students having learned some rationality will cause them to keep getting better at it.
