I suppose I am. That's what we do in science. Observable things are real because we can observe them. That is the origin and definition of all scientific law.
There's plenty of real but unobservable things
Even if that is true, before they are observed (or inferred from observation that can be made) they cannot be and are not science.
Tesla was a hardcore experimentalist. A rational positivist before the term existed. Aether was a real physical media which could be measured, manipulated, and inferred from actual observation. Tesla states this unequivocally and without ambiguity. He was not a mystic, or a metaphysicist - he was a physicist!
