postulate

The physicists postulate that the color-charged black holes could have affected the balance of fusing nuclei, in a way that astronomers might someday detect with future measurements.

"We could postulate that about 80 percent of humans stand up in a similar way. Then we designed a controller around that trajectory."

Some postulate that Haley is staying in the race just to be well-positioned to nab the nomination if Trump is found guilty in one of the criminal trials he faces.

The infamous and problematic "measurement postulate" of quantum theory is not needed, since quantum superpositions necessarily localise through their interaction with classical spacetime.

We don't know, but the postquantum theory doesn't require the measurement postulate, because the classicality of spacetime infects quantum systems and causes them to localise.
