(Usually, any theory is considered to be inapplicable in similar cases,
but GRT for saving its "universal character" begins to construct
fantastic pictures, such as black holes, Big Bang, etc.).

There may be some confusion with the principle of correspondence, as
it's used also in philosophy.
I meant this principle of correspondence, from quantum physics:
https://www.britannica.com/science/correspondence-principle
QUOTE:
Correspondence principle, philosophical guideline for the selection of
new theories in physical science, requiring that they explain all the
phenomena for which a preceding theory was valid. Formulated in 1923 by
the Danish physicist Niels Bohr, this principle is a distillation of the
thought that had led him in the development of his atomic theory, an
early form of quantum mechanics.
Early in the 20th century, atomic physics was in turmoil. The results of
experimentation presented a seemingly irrefutable picture of the atom:
tiny electrically charged particles called electrons continuously moving
in circles around an oppositely charged and extraordinarily dense
nucleus. This picture was, however, impossible in terms of the known
laws of classical physics, which predicted that such circulating
electrons should radiate energy and spiral into the nucleus. Atoms,
however, do not gradually lose energy and collapse.
Bohr and others who tried to encompass the paradoxes of atomic phenomena
in a new physical theory noted that the old physics had met all
challenges until physicists began to examine the atom itself. Bohr
reasoned that any new theory had to do more than describe atomic
phenomena correctly; it must be applicable to conventional phenomena,
too, in such a way that it would reproduce the old physics: this is the
correspondence principle.
The correspondence principle applies to other theories besides quantum
theory. Thus, the mathematical formulations for the behavior of objects
moving at exceedingly high speeds, described by relativity physics,
reduce for low values of speed to the correct descriptions of the
motions of daily experience.
