That's a pretty idiotic dichotomy. There's nothing in between
established, demonstrated science and quackery? How, then, do new
sciences come about if they are quackery up to the moment they
become successful and demonstrable? Ever hear of research?
Investigation? Experimentation?

Failure is far more valuable to science than success; those who
think otherwise don't understand science at all.
