The reasoning that is helpful in finding new knowledge of facts about the world is

Inductive reasoning is what yields genuinely new knowledge of facts about the world.

It moves from observed particular instances to a broader generalisation not contained in them.

Because the conclusion says more than the premises, it adds fresh, ampliative content.

Deduction only draws out what its premises already contain, so it uncovers nothing new about facts.

The fact-extending, content-adding character belongs to induction.
