It's like asking an explosives expert whether bonfire night will revolutionise the industry, or whether chemists are excited about the potential of paracetamol. They're useful, and they do appreciate them, but they're aren't revolutionary.
There's going to be hell to pay when people actually research some scientific history, look up the ultra violet crisis, and start using 'but scientists were wrong about that, why can't they be wrong about this' for stupid reasons like climate change denial or fucking their dog.
