This is scientific methodology - i.e. if the assumptions are false, then the conclusions don't stand a chance.

Actually, you can’t conclude that the conclusion is false just because the assumptions are flawed. All you can say is that the conclusion does not follow from the assumptions.

Plenty of scientific papers have flawed presentations, but correct conclusions – mostly because the author started with an observation and fit the theory.

It’s rare to find sound theory. Sound meaning a correct conclusion that does follow, necessarily, from the assumptions.
