He's more of a mathematician theoretician than a scientist in my book.
He's done some brilliant mathematical hacks to come up with some very interesting theories. For instance, creating a boundary layer and applying different mathematical theories on both sides to come up with the idea of Hawking Radiation from black holes. And that has met with some observations as well
But like the hack itself, the observable evidence requires us to squint our eyes a bit to see past all the analogies required.
