I agree. In physics you can use the constant speed of light to balance out equations between all the possible reference points in all the possible worlds, so everything can look very confused from any given point of view but ultimately it all makes sense. It's the mathematical average of all points of view that that turns out to be the more important thing. But in the humanities you don't have anything like that, it's never a neatly tied up logical system, and the only constant uniting all the worlds is violence.
