By this logic quantum physics is also not scientific.

Not really. The equations of quantum physics don't change by virtue of you observing them.

Maybe, but the laws as we know them do. People create and change them.

Sure. But updating the equations doesn't change the outcome of the Michelson-Morley experiment or make a ball fall up instead of down -- it simply converges on a more precise outcome.
