„This renders the meaning of significance-testing unclear; it is calculating precisely the odds of the data under scenarios known a priori to be false.“

I cannot see the problem in that. To get to meaningful results we often calculate with simplyfied models - which are known to be false in a strict sense. We use Newtons laws - we analyze electric networks based on simplifications - a bank-year used to be 360 days! Works well.

What did i miss?
