[Avodah] birchas hachamah

[Eli Turkel]

<<One of RYR's Qs essentially was "If 'B'Tishri nivra ha'olam,' why do we say
Bircas haChamah in Nisan?" w/ his answer being (based on a Tos'fos in BT
Rosh haShanah 27) that we hold like R'Eliezer (b'Tishri) in the world of
machshavah and like R'Y'hoshua (b'Nisan) in the world of ma'aseh >>

I am not overly thrilled with the phrase world of maasseh.
First as we all know birchas hachamah is based on the length of the year of
Shmuel which is not correct.
Furthermore we then get into the science debate with virtually no scientist
taking the 5768 years literally in terms of modern day days or years
