Do you believe that Einsteinian Relativity Theory (GRT and SRT) accurately describes the true nature of reality and/or of the universe, or just that it provides a valid mathematical framework for some applications without actually being the objective truth?

no physicist believes that ANY theory describes the "objective truth," whatever the fuck that is meant to be. our theories are models that work to explain what we observe, not the underlying reasons for them.

Anon, I think you are mistaken. A lot of physicists DO believe that GRT/SRT describes objective truth (no need for quotes).

you have no idea what objective truth means. post any of these "physicists" who claim this, because those that I interact with every day know that what we're studying are just models

I'm left to assume you just have no idea what you're talking about. physics is not the same as metaphysics. NO physical model describes "objective truth" which is what I said in my first response, now we're back in the same fucking place.

Latter one. Relativity is a valid mathematical framework conceiving many physically possible models. There are so many sensible models there, but most of them are not directly describing our observable universe.

Besides metaphysics, Relativity has limits like inside black hole and early universe singularity, like the other valid scientific theories.
