What I observe about how science is done is that people make 
observations of the results of experiments, and then form theories to 
describe those observations. Those theories are then used to predict 
other results of experiments that have not been performed, and those 
experiments are done to see whether the results match the predictions. 
If not, the theory is modified or replaced. If yes, then further 
predictions are made.

I have no theory about how science is done, because it would have to 
make additional predictions, and I have no way of doing experiments on 
how science is done. I never claimed to have such a theory.

You made a false assumption.
