Not read the article yet, but:

Summary: The significance of the Compression Rate Method (CRM) is that it justifies a form of hard empirical science that does not depend on controlled experimentation.

Like astrophysics, cosmology, evolutionary biology, and geology?

I'm not sure that hard empirical science sans controlled experimentation needs justification.

I'll read the article, now.

Edit: I have nothing to say about the article.

I see your point and changed the sentence in the summary.
