What about it makes it not science?

Concluding that knowledge influences behavior isn't science. It's common sense.
A conclusion supported by carefully collected data is science. A conclusion based on common sense is not.
You have no idea what science is. Suggesting a hypothesis and then proving it via rigorous testing is what science means. It isn’t whatever the hell you want it to be nor is “science” anything but a method to disprove hypotheses.
They quantified that though.
