The maths used in economics is widely known to be wrong.
When informed the maths in economics is wrong, the economists don't go and fix their maths either.
Economics is more like sociology with some random incorrect formulas written on the black board as set dressing.
Economics might in self loathing claim they are the "dismal science", but the cold hard truth is they simply speaking are not doing their jobs properly. It's a broken research field.
You're not talking about the same "economics". Quantitative analysis, as the person wrote, is pretty good at predicting things.
