The whole beauty of science is that it doesn't ever claim to have static, absolute answers - it's constantly growing and changing as we learn more about everything.

Likewise, the humanities are always growing and changing and being reinterpreted, reflecting what and how we can understand now.

Software goes through rapid cycles of invention and forgetting what's come before. Its totem animal is a Nobel laureate goldfish. That doesn't change.

That's wrong for maths and, by extension, theoretical CS. I mean, sure, some of the answers come with caveats ("assuming P!= NP", etc.), and in theory, all of mathematics could be proven inconsistent (but that to me is completely unreasonable to believe), but for all intents and purposes, these answers are static and absolute.
