Incorrect, only because you’re still tacitly assuming that science (or anything else) must have some kind of external cosmic significance outside of human thought.
Science is important to us – or at least it ought to be – because it’s the method by which we understand how the universe works. Being important to us is all that matters, because we can’t think with the minds of anything else.
science doesn’t require meaning to have purpose. saving meaningless lives and minimizing meaningless suffering are purposes, as is understanding what we are and what we could become.
I’m just glad we can both agree science has no meaning. thanks.

That is exactly my point. Thanks.

why are those purposes meaningful?
would it be meaningful to you to have a drastically better quality of life for yourself and everyone else?
maybe you are defining meaningful in some weird way?
