> Why wouldn't power in the non-physics sense not have meaning?

Well, I didn't say that. I said it was an unfalsifiable topic.

> Why are you restricting meaning, and thus truth, to just physics?

Didn't say that either, and just as well, since there are no truths in physics. In science one can prove a theory false, but one cannot prove a theory true. All legitimate scientific theories remain open to falsification by new empirical evidence, in perpetuity.

Not so for philosophy, which was my point.
