So a really disruptive paper, like Watson and Crick's seminal work that showed that DNA was in the form of a double helix, is really disruptive because all the models people proposed before them suddenly become irrelevant, and nobody will cite those papers anymore—so that's really disruptive research.

He emphasizes how their findings rendered previous scientific models obsolete and marked a transformative moment in scientific research.
