We need a cross-cutting examination of how bad 'economics' is as a science, outside of a narrow defined set of measurable parameters

Economics is a great way of looking at the world as long as you acknowledge its limitations. I think you're conflating an economist with economics. Economists are human with all that entails.
Absolutely terrible.
The foundations of economics are built on school boy style maths errors.
They have famous "paradoxes" and results that are just bad maths.
It's a ridiculous joke of a research field.
If you’re going to dismiss an entire field, you could at least point to specifics that are widely held tenants.
A rational actor has never, does not now, and will never exist.
Despite what social media stoics say.
