We could define "physical" in terms of a future, complete physics in which all questions are answered. What those future physicists will agree on, that's what is physical. Why does Montero think that this won't work?
A) She thinks that physics will never be completed at any point in the future.
B) She thinks that current physics is as good as it is likely to ever get.
C) Since we have no idea what that future physics is like, the theory is false.
D) Since we have no idea what that future physics is like, what does "physical" mean?
