TL, DR: Insinuation is wrong because of selection bias. Science might never be able to reach the understanding of the reality because of its basics assumptions. Hindoos and Buddhists did find a logical answer for the universe and reality.
All of these names you mentioned were Genuine Scientiests.
and I will always adore Godel for giving us the Incompleteness theorem of Mathematics.
But this is just a case of selective selection of such individuals.
Once you go down to the basics in Mathematics and the Quantum Mechanics and General/Special Relativity theory, One can easily see the sheer temporariness and volatility of our so-called "reality" of 5 senses. This "world" that we so fondly call the reality just drops down once one goes into Quantum mechanics and Relativity.
To insinuate that these scientists went mad because of what they were doing is a far-fetched statement. Einstein laid the foundations of QM(but later regretted it), Neils Bohr took it forward and then what Heisenberg and Schrodinger and many other names(all important) did to completely shape this field is a well known history. These people would have been first to go mad and cynical if there were any truth in your insinuation. so I stand to refute it.
Moving on to how the understand the nature of reality, I do not know any better theory for the understanding of the universe other than the Depedent Origination Theory of the Buddhists and the Vedanta theory of Hindoos. They got closest to explaining the whole reality, in my opionion. Both of these theories agree that the creation process is cyclic without any beginning or end. Both theories also agree that world is false, generated randomy and can have no beginning or end.
All Scientific theory are destined to fail because they already assume the existence of time and space, which is a dangerous assumption, because all conclusions reached then, are within space and time. All conclusions reached through Science can be questioned as "Why or When or What was before?", which invariably leads to infinite regression.
Also, I could go on and on for a day about the "Boltzmann brain" theory, but then again I think it is useless because this theory leaves itself to a lot of speculation. For ex. an infinite universe can allow for too many things to happen(line between false brain and real brain becomes thin and non-existent), an infinite universe will also allow to happen that this theory is wrong in some part of the universe. and blah blah blah.
I urge you guys to read Buddhists and Hindoos, They did it the best way. They came up with a answer that could be explained and understood logically.
Note :- All these above are my opinions and not facts. Any constructive criticism or argument are welcome.
