This guy should learn to view science more like a constructivist. Pretty much everything in science is just something we made up that mostly aligns with the natural world, and just because one model is less accurate than another does not mean it's no longer useful.

We didn't abandon Newtonion physics when Einstein's model was proven for instance, since Newtonian physics is still very useful, and much easier to use compared to others.

We didn’t abandon Newtonion physics when we accepted Einstein’s model ~~was proven~~

Well did I miss hearing that someone has proven Einstein?
