My point was that if superdeterminism is true, it is not testable, because we can never get a full description of the rules within our universe.

In principle, you could (as mentioned) get some other process connected to the same hidden variables, in which case you could predict some events with perfect accuracy, which would be pretty definitive confirmation of the hidden variable theory.
