I lived with a guy at Uni who had no room for the idea's (for want of a better word) expressed in the Law of One. He would often explain to me in detail various science theories and so on. Which I listened to in great interest but I'v always preferred fanciful and whimsical idea's. As for the article Einstein may never be proven wrong and the mere notion of such is indeed quite whimsical for some I'm sure.

Even if other Hypotheses were to explain observations in more detail.Yes, the hypothesis forms the very basis for the terms of validation, hence why he never can be wrong. That is, for people who bothered to read the article before contributing.
In order for Einstein to be wrong, at least one of his hypotheses would have to fail an experiment design to test said hypothesis.
Of course, there is always a "better" hypothesis waiting around the corner. But a newer valid hypothesis does not necessarily, by itself, invalidate a previous one.
