Less, > Why do they tell us they poled a bunch of economists and their estimate was off? How is that useful.

It depends on who relies upon the estimates of economists. There are a lot of public policy makers that depend on these estimates in order to forecast future trends and plan accordingly. Same with big corporations that have to ramp up manufacturing or hiring in anticipation for future economic growth.
