Literally a meme. You glossed over:
How to construct a hypothesis
How to judge a hypothesis whether it is worth investigating
How to decide between multiple hypotheses
What makes a experiment and how to construct it
How to judge the valid of an experiment and how to know you're measuring/observing what you think you are
The entire field of data monkery
The entire field of science communication
And most importantly step 0: How to hype up whatever you're doing to get grant money and how to write grant applications during the above for the next one
Scientists can spend their whole careers working on a single aspect of it (theorizing, experimenting, or data analysis) and never going through the full meme flow chart.
