Umm, actually, it only makes it a scientifically quantifiable phenomenon. Understanding can sometimes come much later.
For example, we were able to know how much energy was produced by the Sun for decades before we actually understood what created that energy (assuming we actually do now... always possible something could cause us to re-evaluate our current understanding, though unlikely).

Okay, I'm officially done with this.

That is a better case since they were actually able to use their readings to create traps and a containment system for paranormal manifestations (i.e., Ghosts
).
