Summary

This quote emphasizes that science should not employ arbitrary rules to determine which explanations are permissible. It suggests that the scientific process should be based on objective and rational methods rather than cherry-picking or allowing subjective biases.

By avoiding arbitrary rules, science can ensure a more objective and reliable understanding of the natural world.
