Well, for one thing, the statements apply in closed systems. And systems 
can be considered closed only in idealization. And if idealizations are 
considered "false", well.... maybe you mean to say that they are not 
false in the domain where the systems can be considered "close enough" 
to closed to be able to test that hypothesis.
