> Data points aren't reality, they have to be interpreted
Data points perhaps need to be interpreted for utility, but they represent facts (but those are facts of sense experience, which is ultimately subjective, though often expressed in terms of a fairly restrained conclusion of that subjective experience.)
Which is not to say I disagree with your broader point.
