Why stop with biology? Lacking a Theory of Everything or Grand Unified
Theory, we might as well stop kidding ourselves and admit that physics
is also a pseudo-science.

No, lacking a full sized theory of everything doesn't kill physics.
It is work.

In fact, behind me, is a book I prize that details of String Theory
and M-Theory. The formula is now confined in combining these two
almost complete but overlapping theories. Once they are resolved, then
a few will have that.

But theories come up all of the time. As ideas are proved. The word
is proved, not felt like or thought to be or seems like and feels like.....

Pure science contains facts not feelings.

So let me paraphrase what I think you're saying; when the uncertainty
in a given field is reduced to a sufficient degree, it becomes a
legitimate science? What's the standard for when that point is
reached?

I can give you law after law in Physics.
Can you give me a law that is in Biology ? I can't think of any.
Chemistry - yes
etc.

The fact that boundaries are pushed and developed from time to time
doesn't kill a science.

Biology and others are theories for the most part.

Physics is the pure science - from it branches others including Mathematics.
Much of mathematics was developed to understand and work with physics.

I didn't say if I 'invent' a known law out of chaos makes a science.
It is a massive amount. A law is just that. It happens.
