And so in essence everyone with that same attitude is perfectly happy with the notion that the world is flat.
I'm not sure where you are going with that. What I was geting at is that mearly putting forth a theory is no garentee of good sciene. The rest of the definition is required, which adds "observation, hypothesis testing, measurement, experimentation, logical argument" to theory building.

It's the basic scientific method.
