Your examples seem plausible, altho I’d still be interested in more details on each one. Further notes:
“And it did in fact send people like Bohm into spiritual frenzy.”—do you mean Bohr, or is this a story/take I don’t know about?
Re: Semmelweis reflex, I think there’s a pretty big distinction between the “woo” taste and the “absurd” taste. For example, “all plants are conscious and radiate love all the time” sounds like woo to me. “The only reason anybody gets higher education is to find people to have kids with” and “there’s a small organ in the centre of the brain that regulates the temperature of the blood that nobody has found yet” sound absurd to me, but not like woo.
