"Pseudoscientist" in those cases just means they came to disagree with the current dogma. See also people like Kary Mullis or John Ioannidis.

You can't have done real science at one point and then retroactively be declared a non-scientist by people who in many cases couldn't solve a simple equation, let alone conduct the research those people did. Mullis' case is especially ironic, I've heard him called a "conspiracy theorist" by people who use his invention on a daily basis.
