Here's a fictional solution I just made (below). You can phonetically-hammer (I think I just made up a term..) the first paragraph in EVA to modern English, read from end to start.
So why is it bad?
1. It can't be repeated by others. I could sit 5000 people in a room and I doubt anyone would decipher the text the same way.
2. It can't be "measured". There are no more works of this nature to substantiate my claim and my rules are unclear.
I'm sure others will find very many ways in which this is bad, but I think these two are fundamental.
Lots of stuff can "work", but if it can't be repeated by others and it can't be "measured" in some way by peers the theory is "inconsequential" to quote Einstein, or less tactfully "belongs on the trash heap" to quote Neil Degrasse Tyson. Obviously a VM solution is not a physics solution, but I think the general idea is translatable to theories. My solution can't be used, so it is inconsequential. Throws in trash heap
