Science as we know it developed within the context of the state of living and and thinking. This leads to an information "bubble" similar to a social media filter bubble. A common example would be research done on the shape of the human head and faces, which all took place in the past 120 or so years. The normality registered here, accoring to Dr Mew, is not "normal", rather everyone has collapsed longer faces to some degree in the modern age.
There would be many areas where this applies. The emperical materal can only record current normality, any older remnants will be treated as the odd one.
