why stop there modern medicine is also full to the brim with non tested hypothesis. i,e only recently have we seriously looked at the effects of saline and the placebo effect is well documented phenomenon.
From one point of view that just proves your point more, from another, less. If placebo effect is tenuous then all else equal that’s a good sign for the rest of medicine… but in fact lots of medicine is tenuous. The landmark “Most Published Research Findings Are False” was looking at medical findings iirc.
