I wrote that off the cuff in frustration and made a mistake about the direction of implication. There is overlap in that they are built on observation, but they aren't the same. Thank you for your understanding.
I am fine with what you're saying.
If you are a physicalist, then you aren't like other physicalists I've encountered, who don't accept that their axioms are just assumptions, and use that stick to whack everyone else over the head.

I've only encountered such a rare few times. Most physicalists I've talked to are perfectly fine accepting that e.g. the law of identity is unfalsifiable.
