{{Theory
|Title=Scope of Scientonomy - ScaleAll Scales
|Theory Type=Normative
|Formulation Text=Scientonomy should provide explanations of all kinds of changes to the scientific mosaic at ''all scales. It may distinguish between grand and '' from the most minor changes, revolutions and normal-science changes, or hard core and auxiliary changes, but must provide explanations at all levelstransitions to the most major.
|Topic=Scope of Scientonomy - Time, Fields, and Scale
|Authors List=Hakob Barseghyan,
|Formulated Year=2015
|Description=xxxxAny change in a mosaic is within the scope of scientonomy. Scientonomy should explain not only ''major'' transitions in the mosaic such as those from the Aristotelian-Medieval set of theories to those of Descartes and his followers, but also relatively ''minor'' transitions, such as a transition from "the Solar system has 7 planets" to "the Solar system has 8 planets". The question of actual taxonomy of scales is to be settled by an actual scientonomic theory. A scientonomic theory may distinguish between between grand and minor changes, revolutions and normal-science changes, or hard core and auxiliary changes; in any case, it ought to provide explanations at changes at all levels.
