Some hundreds years ago, guys thought that Earth was flat.
Their determination was irrelevant, since Earth was/is Not flat, regardless of timing.
It applies to a star we have not discovered yet. It exists, regardless of what Science teaches us today.

Example :
A blind-man can not see. Does Moon exist for him or (she) does not ?

What absract are you talking about ?
I am afraid that by following your approach Homo Sapiens could have already disappeared, since any progress would take place under specific conditions and only. A sort of scientific tyranny. What could have been developed, then ? Not much, if anything at all, I am afraid.

In short : a stereotypcial way of thinking never helped Homo Sapiens to make progress, ever.
Maybe I'm out of touch with the conversation, but I'm having a hard time understanding how this pertains to ... anything.
