That is a pretty bold statement and sufficiently generic that examples can be offered to prove it wrong. Common sense sense says to not just run into a speeding car. Are there experiments proving that wrong? I am trying to be reasonable, but it starts with OP presenting an idea that is not so easily countered.
Tradition and common sense are so fundamental that you're really going to have a hard time with this statement, and what does "wrong" mean exactly?
Brushing your teeth 2x a day is a tradition and common sense. You do it not because you've studied the literature and know for sure it's the most optimal way to maintain dental health, but because you we're taught to do it that way, it seems to work well enough, and everyone else does it too.
Does that make it wrong? Does that mean the vast majority of your daily life, as riddled with tradition and common sense as it is, is wrong? I don't think so.
I don’t think that’ll be relevant to what the article is discussing. It’s about group vs individual traditions. We can’t refute those points by waving quantum mechanics.
That's probably the only (if not most) unintuitive experimental knowledge we've come across, and we still don't have a good explanation for it today. No idea how that makes tradition "invariably wrong".
Using this as an example of "tradition being wrong" in the context of the linked article is literally peak autism on top of the fact that our "common sense" understanding of physical processes being wrong (is it even wrong at the level of abstraction we work on?) says nothing about our understanding of social phenomena.
