What is the mechanism of discipline rejection? How do disciplines become rejected?
The discipline of astrology was an accepted part of early modern science, but is no longer a part of science today. Alchemy, phrenology, and natural theology are other examples of disciplines that are no longer a part of modern science. Scientonomy has formulated accounts of how theories and questions become rejected. Can disciplines also be said to be rejected? If so, how are they rejected? What is the relationship, if any, between discipline rejection and the rejection of theories and questions? An answer to these questions is of great importance to theoretical scientonomy.
In the scientonomic context, this question was first formulated by Paul Patton and Cyrus Al-Zayadi in 2021.
