In a way, you're right. Copernicus did not use the scientific method to
make the proposal he did, nor were his arguments scientifically compelling.
Nor did his arguments convince many. That egocentrism was false. See Brahe,
for example. What DID turn the tide was in fact science, in the hands of
Kepler, Galileo, Newton.

You don't see how those are connected?

No. Scientists do though.
