Other types of what? ... scientists?
In graduate school I knew a chemistry professor who had a "mah-velous"
computer program that calculated properties of various molecules if you
just input the structures. I once had the audacity to suggest an error
analysis on his output - the last time he spoke to me.
He was *not* an empiricist.
