Was about to comment this myself - totally agree.
The single quickest way to make me suspicious of an empirical study is to give it a prescriptive title. I agree with this title wholeheartedly, but I want (1) studies that provide objective evidence and (2) position papers that recommend policies based on that evidence. Both are legitimate copes for researchers to publish within if they call it what it is. This is a position paper, not a study.
