Scientific inquiry is often imagined as a smooth ascent—a methodical accumulation of facts leading humanity ever closer to objective truth. However, history suggests that this image may be too simplistic. At times, science operates within an established framework, one that defines what questions are meaningful and how evidence should be interpreted. Within this structure, progress appears orderly and cumulative.Yet, when persistent anomalies arise—findings that cannot be explained by existing theories—tensions begin to build. Eventually, a point is reached where the old framework no longer holds. A new model, often incompatible with the previous one, emerges and redefines the fundamental assumptions of the field. This process is not a minor correction, but a radical shift in worldview. Competing models may use the same terms, but they often mean entirely different things.Thus, the development of science is not merely a linear path toward a fixed endpoint. Instead, it reflects __________________________, where the lens through which knowledge is filtered is as consequential as the data itself.
