Oh for sure. There's a massive grey area in the middle.

I guess Three Body builds on our physics knowledge, with assumptions about new things being discovered, where as Star Wars ignores it.

Some stuff that happens later in the series (the books) does seem to be pretty much fantasy, but it doesn't have people warp across the galaxy with no time relativity issues so it's probably closer to hard sci fi than soft.
