    Challenges→Audretsch's focus on direct empirical tensions as absent in quantum gravity can be questioned.

    Any conceptual or formal tension between two theories claiming universality must point to either or both theories being in error in their claims to universality.

    SEP: quantum-gravity
    View source passageHide passage
    Research in quantum gravity has always had a rather peculiar flavor, owing to both the technical and conceptual difficulty of the field and the remoteness from experiment. Yoichiro Nambu (1985) wryly labels research on quantum gravity “postmodern physics” on account of its experimental remoteness. Thus conventional notions of the close relationship between theory and experiment have but a tenuous foothold, at best, in quantum gravity. However, since there is a rudimentary ‘pecking order’ amongst
