I want to know the answer to the following question:
What was historically disputed about vacuums?
All the background I'm provided with is that "Following Plato, even the abstract concept of a featureless void faced considerable skepticism: it could not be apprehended by the senses, it could not, itself, provide additional explanatory power beyond the physical volume with which it was commensurate and, by definition, it was quite literally nothing at all, which cannot rightly be said to exist.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
