Doesn’t that mean that the data driven theory calculation was likely underestimating its uncertainties?

This is a lovely experiment and all, but didn’t the resolution to this puzzle come from the theory side? 🧪⚛️

The attack on basic science in the USA is real:

The National Science Foundation just killed half of the Nobel prize winning LIGO experiments (essentially meaning: LIGO can no longer see where a gravitational wave comes from, just that it was there)
