No. The false implied premise is that simply observing an artifact gives the observer knowledge of its truth. Sensory perception (observation) is only the first step in a deductive (or inductive) process that concludes with the knowledge of the truth or falsity of the artifact. What's' missing is the conceptual application of logic to prove or disprove the truth of the sensory-perceptual starting point.
