Yeah, so I have a problem with #1 and #2 as to what we were taught.
Because what usually happens is..
You don't need to raise questions then.
The only time you raise questions is when there's a lack of knowledge on the thing
and I think it's more often the case that your theory starts when there IS knowledge,
it's just that you think it's either externally wrong (that's not how the balls fall when I drop them from the leaning tower of Pisa)
or internally wrong (This author is saying balls and objects in general fall due to air pressure, but in another book the author says balloons float due to air pressure, huh?!?)
