When something makes sense, you are adding subjective value to it. There is nothing objective about something making sense; it is dependant on your particular brain, and it tends to be uncontrollable and seemingly arbitrary. You could be stuck learning a math problem, fall asleep, and in the morning everything suddenly makes sense.
The epicycles of a geocentric universe make sense, for example, so try to substitute "making sense" with a more measurable claim: the heliocentric model makes the least number of predictions, etc.
It is difficult to divorce the science from the scientist, but we can at least be mindful of where one ends and the other begins.
