Well-known economist (public speaker and author) Ha-Joon Chang [0] says something very similar, here is the "RSA animate" short version: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdbbcO35arw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NdbbcO35arw My version: The deeper you go with your models the more you lose sight of the big picture, until you end up with crazy sophisticated mathematical models - that don't model reality (meaning not even relevant reality, apart from small well-defined sub-problems).
