As someone who did statistics and psychology, I'm very surprised by this take, for a few reasons:
1. Many of the early pioneers in statistics were psychologists.
2. The econ x psych connection is strong (eg econometrics and psychometrics share a lot in common and know of each other)
3. Many of the people I see with math chops trying to do psychology are bad at the philosophy side (eg what is a construct; how do constructs like intelligence get established)
