Whether this was due to a false sense of patriotism, believing that he was supporting the French view against the English view which was a consequence of Newton 's gravitational theory (which Cassini never accepted), or whether it was through a false sense of family loyalty supporting his father's views, we shall never know.
Kung ito ay dahil sa isang maling kahulugan ng kabayanihan, paniniwalang na siya ay sumusuporta sa French tingnan laban sa mga English na kung saan ay tingnan ang resulta ng Newton 's gravitational teorya (na Cassini hindi tinanggap), o kung ito man ay sa pamamagitan ng isang maling kahulugan ng pamilya katapatan sumusuporta sa kanyang ama views, ay hindi namin alam.
