Well, the most famous opposition to atomic theory (famous to me at least) came from Ernst Mach of Mach’s Principle. Seems like applying his positivism to quantum physics tells you that only the wave-function and the Born rule “are real”. Atoms just give us a convenient way to approximate these rules for predicting experience.
