Yes, exactly!
Science isn't about finding "answers" so much as just a progressively deeper understanding. I get people getting frustrated when "science changes," but it should be seen as a feature, not a bug.
In another hundred years, people will think that we were ignorant about many things, but it isn't our fault. We're improving and building on our previous collective knowledge, and those in the future will just be building on what we learn the hard way too.
