I think this is a common problem when people working in fields that have somewhat accurate mathematical models look at fields that don't. They often don't realize how hard it is to create an accurate mathematical model for many situations, and assume that the other fields don't have them because the individuals who work in said fields aren't as good at math. Which is why every so often you'll get things like a physicist spending a couple months studying economics in their free time and deciding that they can now unlock the secret to economics which has eluded economists.
