Greetings Gav,
I (who matters little) personally am more comfortable with
unconditional. I might prefer empty over unity too, but... Besides
my nit picking, I found what you wrote valuable. Thank you.
Not having been educated as a scientist, I can get annoyed when the
scientific method is used to justify facts. Here is a website that
I found that is close to my concerns. It's entitled: The Myth of
the Magical Scientific Method.
