[Mark] I am not sure what you mean by experienceable. There are many things that we cannot experience, yet have a concept for. We cannot experience a complete vacuum, but we can define it. We cannot experience life ever after, but we can define it. We have the ability to extrapolate to that which we cannot experience. Like: "It feels like this, only 10 times as strong", or, "Bosons exist according to the math, but they have no mass". Just because we cannot experience something, doesn't mean that we can't create the experience for it. In terms of validity, your statement above should contain the words "less valid" instead of "more valid". In my opinion.
