This is really more a problem with our University system and how academics gain prestige though publication. The more you publish the better for your career and this applies to many fields, not just Philosophy. The reduction of tenure positions also plays into this as it ramps up the competitive aspect. Actually doing anything that makes a real contribution to your field is of little consequences.

If you want a steamer, look at psychotherapy. That makes philosophy look sane because no one tries to apply it.

Did you weight your measurement by magnitude of influence (including negative reactions from "non-fans", to both science itself but also scientism, and the behavior of science's fan base) they each have in the world?

Some people think science has a proper lane, and that it (and those who speak on its behalf, cheerlead for it, etc) should stick to it in a more disciplined manner.
