One of the huge problems for economics, as a scientific discipline, and as a social science discipline, is that its subject matter, its objects of study, and its methodology, omitted in the processes of academic specialization, so many dimensions of reality.
This has not been a failing specific to economics. One can go down a list of failed disciplines which segregated a chunk of reality for a subject matter, and then applied a methodology to it.
Each discipline quickly became vested in the veracity of its account, its methodology, and its turf.
