Two unstated premises here: 1) You can't share quantitative methods in a pop science book. You can't share with a general audience ideas like multiple regression, covariance, controlling for confounding factors. 2) There is no compelling evidence to back up many economic empirical results other than multiple regression. Some intro stats professors and some Kaggle competitors would balk at those assumptions.
