Nobody forced Wolfram to put "Computational Astronomy" in the title, instead of something more accurate like "12 astronomy related widgets we've implemented", not sure why you get so offended by how far short they fall of the chosen title.

Also, I am not overly surprised that the origin of your quote looks to be a British aristocrat speaking about the conversational capabilities of dinner guests: https://quoteinvestigator.com/2014/11/18/great-minds/

IIRC Wolfram had a blog post about how everything is developing a data/computational angle - he called it Computational X a few years ago now. Fitting they would call this Computational Astronomy.

Omg. In Nassim Taleb words, you merciless imbecile. Wolfram calling computational X means nothing. The term computational existed decades ago and within the realm of computational science people tended to joke about computation X y and z. Just because wolfram has a media publisher that merciless imbeciles subscribe who are ignorant towards word uses, doesn’t mean he is the inventor of cellular Automata, complexity theory and computational science.
