Since when is that an acceptable means of scientific observation?
No. No it did not
However, because of its simplicity, and its correct results for selected systems (see below for application), the Bohr model is still commonly taught to introduce students to quantum mechanics
If there is no technical way to observe this structure, and there isn't, there are other methods.

We need verification.
Electrons are not little balls that orbit the nucleus like planets.
Then you can try to look at this structure yourself, using your own powers in this regard. You have a good chance of spotting it.
Electrons are not little balls that orbit the nucleus like planets.You are right to some extent in this respect, I admit. However, I would insist that the astronomical model is useful. I will refer here to A. Comte, who assumed that each preceding science is the basis for the next, and this subsequent science can draw models from the preceding one. Sociology from biology, biology from chemistry, chemistry from physics, and physics from astronomy. According to this concept, physics can have a basis in astronomy and physics can draw basic models from astronomy.
