Ah, well, if TFA defines the Founders as social scientists, then I can call today's AR-15 a muskeet. Precisely one of the issues of today social sciences is the absolute perversion of language (on purpose).

You can make everything a social science with a bit of imagination.

Isn't this just being pedantic? How is TFA's point changed by substituting "social sciences and other humanities" for "social science"?
“Social sciences and other humanities” would add an additional problem because social sciences aren't humanities.
