I'd say that knowledge falls by the wayside, not truth. A few decades ago, a grad student told me (when I was frustrated) that science ALWAYS works, because it can't do otherwise. If our experiment doesn't 'work', look at all the details, because the universe always does what's 'true' or right. We just weren't looking at the right thing. Or we weren't asking the right question. But what happens is always right, even if we don't understand it.
