That's anyone way of putting it.
But memes like ->
"emission theory makes wrong predictions in other domains"
give the false impression of applying to ALL types of emission theories
which is false claim.
There is difference between claims->
(i) ALL emission theories make wrong predictions in other domains
and
(ii) SOME emission theories make wrong predictions in other domains
The looseness in language used by many physics texts (especially popular
science texts) allow false memes to be easily created.
i.e. don't use rigorous Logic with quantifiers

Ok, to clarify *this* emission theory is wrong in other domains. Perhaps
a new emission theory will be formulated that will work in those other
domains.

emission theory DOES NOT makes wrong prediction in other domains.
What probably really talking about is misapplying emission theory in
other domains
the claim "emission theory makes wrong predictions in other domains" is
just a meme promoting a falsehood
It is an example of lie which - if a lie is repeated often enough then
people start believing it.

Subject: [Vo]:animation of emission theory
I made a little gif animation of the Michelson Morely experiment using
the emission theory of light which says the velocity of the source can
be added to the speed of light.

Using the theory of an aether wind in 1887, Michelson and Morely
predicted the waves would arrive back at the corner of the 'L' at
different times which would result in a fringe shift, but no fringe
shift was detected. The emission theory successfully explains this "null
result" because the waves arrive at the corner at the same time.
However, the emission theory is now widely rejected because it makes
wrong predictions in other domains.
