Newton's theory of gravity ... severely inaccurate.

Except it's not - it's accurate enough within certain limits to still be useful today. It's only inaccurate in extreme cases. Relativity is more accurate, sure, but outside of the extremes, it's more complex than Newton's and not worth the extra trouble.
