I share similar thoughts with the top comment by theXYZT.
If I may add to her comment, I would say:
Embrace the new approach even if it shatters our philosophy.
But it's not only about what happened in the history of physics. It's about what we believe in science.
In some sense, the purpose of interpretability and parsimony is for human to come up with better ideas and making us happy. If a universal model is working well enough and can be improved gradually already, interpretability is not as important as predictability.
This is more or less the first principle of science, if I may say so.
