OK. (Except I am not sure that the existence of physical laws are a
fact, just an inference from facts).

That is an open question for me (absolute measure still does not make
sense for me and for ... the lobian machine).
But even if that is true it is not clear for me if such a measure could
be relevant.
But this is again the Relative/Absolute sampling debate. Once I got a
little bit more time I will explain why an absolute measure would need
an S5 modal logic, the one which cannot really appear in the lobian
talk ...
Sorry to invoke the lobian beast so often, but I'm only his humble
messenger ... ;)
