Your science weirdtopia seems a lot like how MMORPGs work now, to a large degree. There’s an internally consistent set of world-rules, but they won’t tell you what they are. Sure, people are happy to share their experimental results with you, but you have to go looking. Spoilers aren’t left out in the open.
Why would we need the weirdtopia science to be performed on the physical world? Wouldn’t new world-rules, optimized for the fun of learning them be better?
