Math is not science, it stands alone,
even if it is basis of near all scientific models.

While math does know proofs,
science generally does not.

Even mathematically consistent scientific theories
cannot be proven to be right.

They can be only refuted as wrong by experimental contraexamples,
or for now their predictions confirmed, if in agreement.

Such confirmations only increase the probability they are right,
but never achieve certainty
and can be anytime challenged by new observations or measurements.

   Dogma doesn't work in science. Ideas and theory must be tested by the

Those theories are only supported by fanciful symbols not by real mathematics. Its akin to the esoteric mumbo jumbo of a priesthood that wants to pull the wool over our eyes.

   Nope, Peter--those theories are not contradicted by the hard data of
   observation and experiment.

You can't tell which is correct thinking, Peter, without experiment.
Rejecting someone else's thinking just for the sake of rejecting it is 
not the same as rejecting dogma.

In addition, Peter, you do not understand what GR actually says, and you 
should stop pretending that you do.

So, it being something you don't know about, you should refrain from 
commenting on what it says, when you don't actually know.

Statistical error rules are important in every context,
where are processed not exact values
especially when final results seem to ignore it.

The same rule is nothing new.

There is no uncertainty in my calculation of GM in terms of random error, resolution or systemic error.

The real deficiency is the below.

If any constant like G
or experimental data like orbiting period or orbit parameters
have their relative error,

then any calculation using them via multiplication and division
have relative error of result worse
then the worst relative error from the input data and constants.

As G is known with 5 digit accuracy,
result using it cannot be better.

No, Peter, this is wrong. Did you ever take a freshman physics course to 
learn the sources of uncertainty and how to quantify them? Your idea of 
how to determine uncertainty is just not right.

   Why don't you just put a solar satellite up with radio transmitted

   GM_sun = rv^2

   where the r and the v can be measured very precisely.

Not necessary. My calculations by my four formulas sufficiently prove the harmony of the solar system.
