We could also say that science is an approximation of reality, and that each refinement brings us closer.
So you are essentially a proponent of
verisimilitude?

But science doesn't just look at what is true, it also shows concepts that cannot be true because of the contrary evidence. Sometimes what cannot be true is as/more important than what can be true.
Indeed. But if we are considering two explanatory theories neither of which has been falsified (maybe one has been designed to be unfalsifiable) is there any way to distinguish between the two in terms of verisimilitude?
Or not?
