Well, to be fair the history of science is full of theories that turned "reality" upside down. Humans descended from a common ancestor with apes? Outlandish! The entire earth is covered with giant moving plates? Too silly to even respond to!! This particular one would perhaps best be described as Copernican if true. But I'm wondering if the analogy we're really looking for here is closer to Piltdown Man. "Chimeric network"? From The American Heritage paperback 4th edition dictionary: Chimera - An impossible or foolish fantasy.
