On the other hand almost all uses of scientific "revolution" have little reason to be called that and would be better served by saying evolution or advancement.
About the only true revolution in western science was the divorcing of natural sciences from needing to agree with Catholic orthodoxy or ancient pedagogy during the Renaissance/enlightenment. That's the only time the once ultimate authority over science was usurped and replaced with a fundamentally different approach to science. Everything else, even the momentous discoveries, just resulted in the authorities and institutions at the reigns of science adapting their own views to match, rather than being replaced by another group.
