      - • Danger: theory-ladenness of observation (scientists see what they expect).
      - • But falsifiability, peer review, and replicability counterbalance this.
      - • RLEs: early interpretations of diseases (miasma vs. germ theory); discovery of quantum mechanics (different interpretations of wave-particle duality).
