Who is “we”?

This has been criticized since 1999 and far longer back. How long ago is the Rosenhan Experiment again?

Dare I say that a majority have always held a dismissive, critical view of such matters. But of course, those that hold dismissive views of it are not the ones who work in such fields, and certainly not at the top ready to implement changes, so it can continue to persist and go on despite of being highly criticized.

At least when I studied physics at a university around what must have been 2005, most of the students and professors there were highly critical of softer science and it often came up that some of these papers popped up and were viciously criticized for clear and obvious systematic errors in the methodology.
