I completely agree with this. Ancient philosophers debated the existence of atoms for centuries; then Boltzmann took the theory up to second gear by discovering the implications on temperature and entropy, and then Einstein proved their existence beyond a shadow of a doubt through his work on Brownian motion. It might take centuries of mathematical work to discover an artifact of quantum gravity that's observable within our macroscopic world, but the work must be done.
