Like any other theory, Coleman’s will be found to have limitations in practice, to apply to some ranges of phenomena but fail to apply to others. Such a sharing between success and failure in application is common to all true scientific theories. A theory that covers everything, that cannot be contradicted by experiment, that requires only proper interpretation to be universal, belongs not to science but to religion.
