To me, a substantive answer to the Question beginning this thread, might be to answer related, more-specific, questions, such as I ask in my Question, https://www.researchgate.net/post/Do_Analytical_Philosophers_basically_just_fine-tune_concepts_AFTER_a_major_view_has_been_accepted_adopted_by_psychology_researchers_theorists?
In Kuhn's terms, I believe that the philosophy of science contributes to the development of science (both in general and particular sciences) in normal science periods. It explicitly identifies and formulates the rules of scientific research in those periods. But the philosophy of science does not manage scientific revolutions, it only registers them retroactively.
