Nearly all of science is counterintuitive. It has taken thousands of years by many very smart people to work this out.
You only have to look at some of the ancient Greek 'laws' of science.
For a constant velocity a constant force needs to be applied.
Experimental proof. When the force is removed the object stops.
There was an anomaly with arrows, spears and rocks. But it was proposed that force supplied by the air from the thrower kept the object in flight.
Sound familiar as a fudge factor?
There were four elements whose correct place was earth at the lowest point then water, air and fire. It was evil that kept misplacing these elements.
Experimental proof.
Earth sank in water. Air rises in water. Fire rises in air. And all the other combinations.
The Sun, Moon, Wanderers (planets) and stars go around the earth.
Experimental proof.
Go outside and look at the sky. It is exceedingly obvious!
I could go on for a very long time, but I am sure you could come up with your own version.
