Industrial use is popular due to simplicity, repeatability, low maintenance and longevity.
Mechanisms such as peer review and repeatability of findings are used to try to ensure the validity of scientific advances.
On a commonly accepted repeatability principle, these alternate theories have never been observed and continue to escape observation.
The solution is simply conscientiousness—cleaning, patience, due care and attention, and repeated measurements (good repeatability assures the calibrator that his/her technique is working correctly).
They developed a computer-controlled camera rig called the "Dykstraflex" that allowed precise repeatability of camera motion, greatly facilitating travelling-matte compositing.
