It's like
calling classical mechanics Newtonism and claiming physicists worship apples.

States that are mutually exclusive in
classical physics can exist simultaneously in the weird world of quantum
mechanics — a situation
called a superposition.
In addition, it led to the development of quantum probability distributions,
called Fermi - Dirac statistics and Bose - Einstein statistics, each applicable to a different class of particle, which are used in quantum
mechanics instead of the
classical distributions.
Magnetism at the atomic level is driven by quantum
mechanics — a fact that has shaken up
classical physics calculations and
called for increasingly complex, first - principle calculations, or calculations working forward from fundamental physics equations rather than relying on assumptions that reduce computational workload.
