cousin_it comments on Building Intuitions On Non-Empirical Arguments In Science

I’m not sure that works. Imagine there are two theories about a certain button:

1. Pressing the button gives you a dollar and does nothing else

2. Pressing the button gives you a dollar and also causes an unobservable person to suffer

These theories give the same observations, but recommend different actions, so to me they seem to have different meanings.
