Yes, well, it was on shaky ground to begin with. It was proven quite early on that even if these wormholes did exist, it would take enormous quantities of energy to open them large enough for any practical vessel to pass through. The minimum - minimum - energy to do so was said to be on the order of that produced by converting an entire star's mass to energy, per e = mc ^ 2. That alone was enough to render it practically impossible in any conceivable human timescale. That is to say, there was almost no chance we'd ever be able to use a wormhole as practical means of transportation.
