Exists? You don't mean as an independent entity? Okay, it conventionally exists.

How about contaminated by the scientist's minds? Groupthink? Using
instruments built for the sole purpose of creating the proof? Ignoring
anomalies? The list is long, and I'm sure you know it. But, regardless,
I think it is all very exciting.
