Evidence for constants being constant[edit]

Shlyakhter is best known for discovering empirical evidence for the constancy of fundamental constants.

This sentence sounds awkward because, well, constants are constant by definition, and every time one of them is the same as before, you have evidence. The point of the sentence is that if they should be not constant, the change rate has been measured to be below a certain epsilon, and Shlyakhter made that epsilon smaller. But how to put that? --Hob Gadling (talk) 13:51, 16 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
