Which alternative way of doing measurements do you propose? As far as I know, measuring intrinsic properties, i.e. "using a ruler that inhabits the same space" is with our current technology the only possible way of doing measurements.

  • Assuming that we are trying to understand the ground truth about existence by doing these measurements, may be we can acknowledge the limitation and stop trying to do it. Then we can be open minded and stop being hung up of the idea of "falsifiability", and could come up with or give more consideration to radically different hypothesis that we might come up with alternative measurements that we could make, that can prove or disprove them.
