This abstract presents an essay that explores the intriguing possibilities of how science could have developed differently under alternate historical circumstances, cultural contexts, or methods of inquiry. By contemplating the role of mathematics in physics, alternative foundations for scientific modeling, and the potential impact of egalitarian societies on scientific progress, the essay encourages readers to critically examine the foundations, practices, and institutions that shape the scientific endeavor. The goal is to identify limitations and biases in our current framework, allowing for a more equitable and effective practice of science in the future.
