Not strictly true. If you use a GPS, you are relying on someone applying General Relativity Theory to the clocks in
the satellites going round the world.
That's about lightspeed wave/particles, no? I did read something about how they keep everything synced, but promptly
forgot it.
And the digital sensors in our cameras are based on our current scientific models of the universe. All such models can
change or be improved, but surely it is unwise to assume the current scientific best guess must be wrong merely
because we do not like the consequences it predicts.
No, we don't want to repeat Einstein's "biggest blunder", with the cosmological
constant.
