You&#x27;re right, and it&#x27;s the article fault for poorly explaining Kuhn&#x27;s thinking.<p>Newton&#x27;s laws have never been overturned, merely refined, so we&#x27;ve never truly shifted away from a Newtonian paradigm.<p>A better example (and one that Kuhn himself used), would be phlogiston theory, which was fully overturned when oxygen was redefined as an element and not as simply being &quot;dephlogisticated air&quot;.
