We cannot even assume that it follows the laws of physics? ***A law is just a mathematically rigorous observation. It is not a dictate from nature. LENR is a field of study precisely because the laws of physics are being "broken". It's as if you took some bricks and dropped them from the leaning tower of Pisa just as Newton did, and instead of falling at 1/2gt^2, sometimes the bricks that are sprinkled with a minute amount of pixie dust drop at 2X the acceleration as normal. The mathematically vigorous observation no longer applies under these weird conditions. It wouldn't be a problem if science actually worked the way science was supposed to, but in this case there are entrenched interests in science that would lose their funding if they accepted that the pixie dust bricks actually did fall at the rate described.
