I don’t really understand how we can make conclusions about the entire universe when literally all of the data is collecting from one point in space. Couldn’t there be local effects that obfuscate global behavior?
Is there an implicit caveat asterisk on all such statements that is like “as far as we can possibly tell from the data we have” and the reality is we really, really don’t know for sure?
