And I answer that I'm writing only philosophical articles here, not exhaustive academic treatments for specialists. You happen to be a specialist who wants finer details. That's fine, but it's wierd AF to be making ths category error as if it counts against me, and to be expecting apples to be oranges.
This thesis of mine on economics represents something like two percent of my philosophical worldview. I write mostly about other things, so I'm not interested in backing up every assumption I made here with decisive research. You're taking up too much of my time as it is.
You assert that economists are immune to this broader tendency of bureaucracies to create bullshit jobs. You imply that economists are saintly scientists. That's what seems reasonable to you, and the fact that you're an economist in-training doesn't prejudice your judgment. Right? I don't need exhaustive research to discredit the essence of your criticisms of my article.
