I don't know what support I should provide for distinguishing
theories from empirical laws beyond referring doubters to a
dictionary - I'm not proposing something different from standard
usage within scientific circles. I am cautioning against the
widespread further use of "theory" in common English to denote
something uncertain or tentative as in "...that's all very well in
theory".
