I agree with all this but what we are witnessing is a constant in the intellectual space. This is why they say progress happens one funeral at a time. In this case, they are highly visible intellectuals. Imagine what it would be like if they had positions of power in universities, they would hold back progress at their institutions with their pet ideas for decades and nobody would know the source of resistance.
