String theory is also very weak on predictions. I guess if it should be classified as non-science.

You mean predictions that can be tested right now? Unclear why the proposed time horizon is the right one. This standard would have rejected most of quantum mechanics, some of GR, and many other useful theories and explanations when they were first proposed.

Correct. Similarly, one can imagine a point in the future in which technology advances enough to prove/disprove various predictions with regard to psychology.
You and the person you are responding to are in agreement. They were being sarcastic.
