N2 - It is argued that qualities of complete/incomplete science theory do not relate to the fertility or
diversity or validity of science theory, but correspond with social, behavioral, moral values, and
trespass into the realms of innate knowing, absolutes, cognition and behavior. It is suggested that
terms employed such as "innately incomplete" are redundant in description- i.e.- "flats are innately
flat"-a curved dwelling would not be suitable for habitation, it is similarly very difficult to find other
words to speak of the notion of science as incomplete.
