NOTE

Scientific Advancement Through Debates and Data

Scientific progress is not about agreement, but about having preconceived notions shattered and being open to new ideas. Scientists engage in debates not to win arguments, but to seek the truth. It is crucial to have an open mind and be willing to consider that both parties in an argument could be right or wrong. Through discussions and the acquisition of more data, disagreements can be resolved, leading to a bigger vision and scientific advancement. The notion that science constantly overturns past findings entirely is false, as it is more about refining knowledge and building upon existing understanding.
