I am pretty shure we don't know everything there is to know about electrical signals.
In extreme situations electrical signals behave very unpredictable. Ohm's law is not reality: it is a working model. And it is not complete.
Like Newton gave us a working model for gravity and mass that worked pretty good for a long time (and is still used by many). Only it was not reality.
Einstein proved that.
I don't say Ohm's law is wrong. I just say Ohm's law is probably not all there is to it. It is just the best we've got right now.

While a reasonable scientist would be the first to insist that science never knows everything, there ARE some things it knows very well, and the behavior of an electrical signal is one of them. |
