When I try to visualize Viv's and your approach to describe the growth of scientific knowledge, I see two different things. What you are describing resembles the growth of mold, a fungus that grows undirected, circumvents obstacles (therefore creating "holes"), explores and recedes. Viv's approach resembles an inflating balloon and when she says that every piece so far has fit, she means that it hasn't popped yet. The "holes" created by your fungus are the surface of Viv's balloon. It comes as no surprise that you two have trouble communicating your ideas.
