I agree. Most of the time when the science is settled, it’s settled. For example all scientists knew that once we figured out black body radiation Newtonian physicist is complete. Nothing new was required. Even Lord Kelvin proclaimed that simple outstanding problem was entirely explainable by the physics of his day.

"Serves them well!" people snickered. "Risking one's career on unsettled science!"
