Abstract
We suppose that those who are reading this contribution are familiar with the traditional reconstruction of domain-specific scientific theories (DSSTs) as logically ordered and static systems of statements about their domains. The latter split into separate realities with their attributes. However, any DSST (e.g., celestial mechanics, theories of superconductivity, theories of elementary particles) is an ever-improving tool for acquiring new knowledge. It means that a more realistic reconstruction is a varied polysystem. Its interacting and changing subsystems (SS) perform specific functions in the complex process of obtaining and testing the new knowledge. According to the modified structure-nominative reconstruction, there are many SSs in DSSTs [2019; 2021].
