So you just want it renamed to "social studies" or what? What is your proposal, that nobody research this topic, or that they be separated in journals etc?

That's reductive. Just because you don't see the baby doesn't mean it doesn't exist.

There is plenty of work in social science that contributes to humanity. It will always have smaller sample sizes due to the nature of collecting the data. The work can be considered useful nonetheless.
