Bubka: We have a tradition that Chazal have no Machloksim about Metzius that they could easily determine by looking at. That doesn’t mean they don’t argue over reality. See the Machlokes in Ta’anis about the water cycle. Or the Machlokes of whether a Treifah can live or have kids. Or many other Machloksim. (And by the way, R’ Moshe said that if the Rashba saw reality and Treifos today he would never have said what he said.)
