I think that's like a double negative. Which would imply that Scientology actually IS science, which is ridiculous of course. I think "science" in the title only means "not science" when conveyed in the language you're currently using.

A common misconception! It's actually the science of the color cyan, but people kept mispronouncing "Cyantology". ;)
isn't neurology more to do with the physiological aspect? Neuroscience is a bit more like behavioural psychology.

Is that really an argument in favor of it being a science? Isn't behavioral psych going through a "replication crisis"?
No. It’s saying that GP has completely miscategorised notwithstanding your clumsy strawman.
