If in the future some measurements disagree, any new theory would have to explain/contain all the plethora of existing measurements that do agree, in addition to modeling the ones that do not. | |

If c is not a constant then other things, beatutiful to someone, would aemerge, and a new construct will be created. And we have seen before measurements agreeing with a false throry. Why don't we talk about measurements which don't agree with einsteinian relativity. | |
