Don't overreact.
Science regularly uses rather hard terms and they have specific meanings. I use the term "trivial" a lot and when I do I don't mean "insignificant." The trivial I use often means "requires relatively elementary thinking to work on." (aka something straightforward to do).
Please be forewarned that when scientists say "no holes" it doesn't mean it's complete. Our understanding of nature is still woefully incomplete so technically
everything except mathematics has holes by default.
"No holes" is tantamount to saying "holds water" meaning the theory is sound and nothing has come up that disproves it.
I recommend studying some science in depth to get what we mean by the statements we say. Science is precise with terminology.
