I think it's a good philosophy to follow in general, not just in science. A lot of times, even in science, when we think we know something we often get new data or new information that makes us look at old knowledge in a new light. Sometimes that presumed knowledge is slightly modified, other times it has to be discarded outright.

It's interesting that you say this, because right now I'm reading two different books that both touched this philosophy also, in slightly different ways. They're not a direct 1:1 ratio connection, but there are parallel threads there.
