You say that like it's happened, or that it would be a bad thing if it did.
Well, I don't know if its actually happened (though Galileo definitely got lifetime house arrest over "heretical astronomy").
As for being "a bad thing if it did", I suppose that's true too, at least in the case of the astronomers who stripped Pluto of its status as a planet. :(
