It's certainly better than making up biased stories about how people should react to incentives and disincentives, and what makes economies grow, then declaring those stories to be the gospel truth and the basis of complex public policy.

Which is mostly what we hear in the "debate" out there nowadays. Sadly, few have the attention span for a complex multivariate look at anything. And people don't like degrees of uncertainty when their "stories" hold the promise of absolute truth and virtue to boot.
