Agreed. STEM has proved incalculably valuable in servicing the lowest (most essential) tiers of Maslow's pyramid, but the higher ones (love through to self-actualization) require more nuanced investigation. As society progresses, people worry less about these tiers, like hunger, and it's not unlikely that the primary concerns of future generations will be emotional/social.
