IMO the common sense part isn't "oh right of course those are germs", but following the observation that points to some correlation. They don't have to know or understand the root cause to at least consider (or accept) that something is wrong.
Well, I'm not so sure about that. Consider this:
Quantum Mechanics (QM) makes accurate statements and predictions about a lot of physical experiments.
That doesn't mean, however, that the theory in especially well-liked, especially among common people. There are a lot of people who think that QM is incorrect, or at least incomplete, simply because it contradicts their intuition.
True, and a lot of assumptions we make are based on sound scientific observation. Though gravity is still just a theory, I defy you to try to float off the ground without some kind of assistance.
Quantum Mechanics offers lots of possibilities so I don't know how anyone could think it wasn't "correct," it isn't so much worried about correctness as it is about offering ways of observing dynamic relationships. I'm sure it's always going to seem incomplete.
But that's a good thing. If everyone considers the status quo as final, no one would research anything. It's fine to question stuff, if you at least follow scientific methodologies. Just saying "nah, I don't buy it" and then leaning back doing nothing is just lazy, and not critical thinking.
That’s the scientific part. Conventional wisdom, on the other hand, is often neither.
