It does seems like philosophers do that sometimes, but how do you know there's electromagnetic radiation in the first place? You can't sense it unless if happens to vibrate in a narrow frequency range and even then only imperfectly. So, there's also really necessary philosophy. I guess it's just hard to objectively separate the quality stuff from the wankery.
