I don’t know if it does. It’s not that kind of shift AFAICT. It strikes me as more like the shift from epicycles to heliocentrism. If I recall right, at the time the point wasn’t that heliocentrism made better predictions. I think it might have made exactly the same predictions at first IIRC. The real impact was something more like the mythic reframe on humanity’s role in the cosmos. It just turned out to generalize better too.
Post-reductionism (as I understand it) is an invitation to not be locked in the paradigm of reductionism. To view reductionism as a tool instead of as a truth. This invites wider perceptions which might, in turn, result in different predictions. Hard to say. But the mythic impact on humanity is still potentially quite large: the current reductionist model lends itself to nihilism, but reality might turn out to be vastly larger than strict reductionism (or maybe any fixed paradigm) can fully handle.

This sounds to me like: “I believe the same things as you do, but on top of that I also believe that you are wrong (but I am not).”
Which in turn sounds like: “I do not want to be associated with you, regardless of how much our specific beliefs match”.
