These brilliant physicists have their Truth which is different from the child's? Let's see about that.
First you have to re-imagine what is meant by space/time. A little. Imagine a very limited metaphysic where there are many objects, n, and the only property these objects have is that one is related to another by touching as a many_to_many relationship. This is automatically a spatial metaphysic. Not so Cartesian though.
Now if one of these objects is 'I' and the relationships with 'I' are not always fixed then this automatically brings us time in an I-frame.
This is what I mean by space/time/objects. Nothing more. I'll have to
a little to be sure no mistake has been made in that model.
Now with that abstract minimalism in mind we can come back to our world and ask about the child's truth of there being a carrot over there. Then the PB, Phisicum brilliantalis comes along and says the child is wrong. The thing over there is really X and over there simply a frame of reference, etc.
Is that the truth that the child wanted? Or did he want a carrot? What if the PB get's hungry and desires a carrot? Is the PB now wrong and the child right? Which is Really Truth?
Now say the PB owns (or pl0bs pwns) the Truth. How does PB account for the child always finding the carrot-over-there as truth? Consistently. The PB will have some set of propositions that account for the child's truth. A transform on the child's truth that maps to the new theory of the PB's truth. Such that the child's transform on the PB's truth always results in the carrot being over there.
So how is the child wrong exactly?
Very important question.
