I agree. There are plenty of details that can be argued without trying to write another theory entirely. For example, Mike Alexander casts a wide net, looking at cyclic theories very broadly, and tries to reconcile them -- or not, as the case may be. He still colors inside the lines. If we can't agree on something approaching a common set of assumptions, then why bother?
We all agree that S&H proposed an incomplete theory. That doesn't make it wrong. Most of us try to add a little or take away some here and there. For those who find the theory wrong at its core, moving on is an option. Marc Lamb took that route. It's still open to others.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
