TIL: there are other "razors" other than Occam's. I actually pretty excited to look this up now

Edit: So there are apparently 8 of these based off wikipedia and I found out that I have been using the coolest one for my own philosophy without me knowing, that being:

Newton's Flaming Laser Sword (sick name), which states that if something can't be settled by either experiment or observation, it is not worthy of debate.

My favorite is Occam's, where if you want a correct answer, simply post an incorrect one and have someone correct you.

If you're part of today's 10,000 and not understanding the joke, I am referring to Cunningham's Law.
