If all science were "falsifiable" science would have no value.
Capable of being falsified and having been falsified are two different things. If you come up with something that is not capable of being unmasked for a bunch of claptrap, it isn't science. A theory is only valid as long as it hasn't been falsified, but if there's no possibility of falsifying it it doesn't qualify as a theory; it's just a myth.
