Every physicist alive uses both Heisenberg's Matrices and Schrodinger's Wave; none use Positivism or any other school of philosophy because no philosophical franchise is of the slightest help in doing what scientists want to do, figure out how the world works.

But some can be obstructions, as was positivism. Positivists denied the existence of atoms and probably delayed development of decoherence theory by 50yrs. Platonists obstructed the development of empirical science by discounting evidence of the senses.
