Yes. This one is so pernicious. One problem is that most stem disciplines are built upon equation based models or something related. This works great for math, great for physics, good for chemistry, and not great for biology, really bad for psych or econ. Equation based models have neat linear-causal thinking that simply fails in understanding complex systems in all but the most reductive questions. Most stem students leave hs/bachelors thinking the world is mostly linearly causal. Hell even most doctors think this way - like a mechanic. Discussing the world’s current set of wicked problems with these linear thinkers is unimaginably painful.
