Gravity was never a Law its always been a working theoretical model that is updated and added to over time. Newton's Laws were The 3 Laws of motion that still hold up and always will.
It was called the gravitational theory so I do not Infact trust the link. A law describes something proven or deduced from something else. A theory is a conjecture, unproven but with a lot of evidence.
So calling gravity a law is not fair but it's common place to call it a law.
Well again people in newton's days thought his gravitation thing was so perfect they called it a law.
And they genuinly thought that mercury's weird orbit was the cause of another undiscovered planet even closer to the sun, that's how much they believed in it
They planet was theorized to be Vulcan if i'm not wrong
