Yes, it's a pervasive problem. People have enough trouble with this, even in areas where things don't change rapidly. As someone who's lately steeped in science (vocationally) and skepticism (avocationally), I've had to confront some previously unexamined areas of my philosophy. Though I'm naturally more introspective than many, I must say it can be difficult at times. Despite being a writer, the author would do well to read your comment and learn from it. :)
