Not OP but here, > I don't think the article was making a claim about philosophy being a science.

How I understood it, is not as saying the article says the opposite but as an statement to introduce the idea that people disagree on what 80% is worth reading and that all fine because is not science.

That was my understanding of what they wrote as well, if I may also chime in.

That was my understanding, too, and I wrote it. :)

I'm fine with calling it "the mother of all sciences", though, just to annoy some natural scientists.
