Of course there were deep problems which related to space and matter, action at a distance and the vacuum which scientists were struggling with at this time and More's views provided motivation to many scientists to clarify their own ideas and improve their arguments.
Or, as Einstein put it,"spooky action at a distance.
From a Newtonian perspective, action at a distance can be regarded as"a phenomenon in which a change in intrinsic properties of one system induces a change in the intrinsic properties of a distant system, independently of the influence of any other systems on the distant system, and without there being a process that carries this influence contiguously in space and time" Berkovitz 2008.

This kind of electrodynamic theory is often called"direct interaction" to distinguish it from field theories where action at a distance is mediated by a localized field localized in the sense that its dynamics are determined by the nearby field parameters.
This was taken by most researchers, including Laplace,as support for the Newtonian concept of instantaneous action at a distance, and to indicate the implausibility of any model such as Le Sage's.
