I obviously understand that our understanding of science evolves as we learn more

The nature of our understanding of reality itself evolves.

This is why when new true discoveries are found that are disparate from the most commonly held understandings of reality there is violent backlash against the bringer of this new understanding. There are many examples of this.

I guess I’m trying to say that, from my perspective, there are enough “modifications” that we simply have to accept even if we don’t understand them that it’s worth questioning the validity of the full model itself. If Einstein’s equations only work in 60% of known situations while the other 40% just have to have an unknown “variable” that must exist even if we can’t measure it, I can be on board with questioning his theories as a whole
