I got bored. This is an article style I really don’t like, the interesting information is buried towards the end after thousands of mostly irrelevant bits of narrative which aren’t worth remembering.

I can guess the ending though, technical guy sees psychologists appropriating a well defined mathematical structure, doing some hand waving, and claiming that it applies to your everyday life in a shallow way. Guy is hero.

Yes, psychology is absolutely full of bad science and bad scientists. Lots of fields are, but particularly psychology.
