|Preamble=It is currently accepted in scientonomy that epistemic agents can take three unique and independent stances towards theories, viz., ''acceptance'', ''use'', and ''pursuit''. However, the history of science shows that an independent stance of ''scientificity'' (i.e., whether a theory is considered scientific or unscientific) has been taken by epistemic agents towards theories. The stance of scientificity can be taken towards a theory independently of whether it is accepted, used, or pursued. Thus, we suggest that scientificity is a unique epistemic stance taken by epistemic agents towards theories.
