How does the concept that "science progresses one funeral at a time" impact the advancement of knowledge and innovation in the scientific community?

The concept that "science progresses one funeral at a time" suggests that new ideas and advancements in science often face resistance from established beliefs and older generations of scientists. This can slow down progress and innovation in the scientific community. When older scientists with entrenched views retire or pass away, it can create space for new ideas and approaches to take hold, leading to more rapid advancement and innovation in science.
