When Newton(?) claimed that objects of different mass but negligible air friction fell at the same rate, that theory was rejected.

Natural intuitions, common sense, and folk wisdom have consistently shown that they cannot identify a theory which explains the actual observations better than they can.
Common sense and folk wisdom say that has changed, and we will now accept a new, more correct theory without challenging it.
