We still have the aether, we just call it the "electromagnetic field"

We absolutely do not have an aether! Light does not travel through a medium like ripples in water.

The aether makes specific predictions. Like the fact that we're all traveling through it because it is a background medium. These were clearly refuted.

Fields are not aethers. Fields do not have a reference frame.
