Are there any GUT's that do not violate baryon number?
It's my understanding SU(5), SUSY SU(5) and SO(10) have been falsified by current bounds on proton decay.
Alternatively, given the current bounds of proton decay is 10^33 years 95% confidence and counting, if physicists a century from now of looking for proton decay and come up with null results conclude that baryon number is conserved, would this falsify all GUT scenarios?
