What about research showing things like intermediate traces exist, we parse sentences in accordance with binding principles, we don't postulate gaps for fillers in sentences in island contexts unless there'll later be a potential filler gap? All of these are facts we know from abstract work in Chomskyan syntax, and yet they've been replicated in laboratories. So, your claim that there's no fruits is just simply empirically false
