Plural Scientific Method

The recognition that there is no single "Scientific Method" but rather a pluralistic toolkit of methods, each suited to different questions, domains, and scales. Physics methods work for physics; ecology methods work for ecology; ethnography methods work for humans. Plural Method rejects the hierarchy that puts some sciences above others and instead asks: what tools are appropriate for this problem? It's the difference between insisting every tradesperson use a hammer and recognizing that plumbers need wrenches, electricians need testers, and sometimes you need all three. Pluralism isn't relativism—it's just acknowledging that reality is various and requires various tools.

"You keep saying economics isn't a real science because it can't do controlled experiments like physics. Plural Scientific Method says: different domains, different methods. You don't test a parachute the same way you test a marriage, and that's fine."
