It's already credible, because it explains so much with so few assumptions. Also, because it can be applied (i.e. engineering). It is by its nature objective.

What this would mean is that there is some underlying mechanism from which you can derive each, using some approximation.

EXAMPLE: Newtonian physics is still "correct" in the sense that it works, even though it treats the world as being far more continuous than it actually is. It works because you can mathematically approximate to continuity when you're dealing with so many billions of particles.
