It really irks me that these things are called "laws". A law is something we expect to hold true forever, by means of the hypothetico-deductive scientific method.

They're phenomena. They're patterns we observe, and that's it. The pattern may change anytime, and that's something that should be expected. The causes may be known or unknown, but to call it a law may even make it hold true for longer, for "psychological" reasons. The law of gravity isn't influenced by what SpaceX investors think about it.
