Wrong. If anything remains a theory, rather than a law, it cannot be proven.
Unless you can account for every eventuality and have every detail down, it remains a theory. And we can't. We can't know how, for instance, Gravity works on the other side of the universe. There could be eventualities we could never even fathom let alone test for.

We can NEVER get (micro)evolutionary genetics down to an exact science for all of history. Thus it will always be a theory

We are as close to making all aspects of atomics, gravity, relativity and heliocentrism laws as we are evolution.

Simply because our perception cannot extend to everything. None of the previous mentioned are any more defined than evolution.
BTW there is no differing of opinon on evolution among real science. There is difference in the method, function, timeline and mathematics, but the general umbrella theory of evolution as "The natural and gradual process in which the change in the genetic composition of a population during successive generations, as a result of natural selection acting on the genetic variation among individuals, and resulting in the development of new species."

You won't find difference from that among real science.
