We are likely going to find out that both are unfixably faulty.

It'll take either the next Einstein or some groundbreaking experimental observation to get there in my opinion.

If it was possible to incrementally fix these theories, the army of postdocs working on these would have already done so in the last decade or so.

But at least the experimental results disproving these incremental fixes should be exactly the kind of thing the next Einstein should need for coming up with an entirely new way of looking at things

you think the deepest mysteries of reality and the universe should just reveal themselves because we have a couple thousand smart people working on it for... 10 years?
