Of course you can... paper tolerates anything. Will that make it a fact? Surely not.

Is your new area of expertise a science? If not, it's a humanity, where there's only one axiom: "people will behave according to their whims and needs", and you can't even follow up on that using logic. Therefore, you're in uncharted territory, with no facts set in stone. Except, of course, those set by your professor :).
