Yes and no. While not a natural science, the study of humans making choices in a resource limited envrionment is a study that does work in examining how policy decisions affect human outcomes. The analysis should hopefully enable making better policy. Ideally we'd be less intellectually lazy than saying, "broken thing better than other broken thing", but here we are.

Maybe it is more akin to health analysts interpeting how the rules of the game affect injuries, and then, hopefully, offer ways to reduce TBIs. The better outcome would be to not play a game that leads to concussions, but... fuck (waves hand generally)

One major problem with our current economic system is that it allows a small group of people to limit resources that would not naturally have to be limited (false scarcity). Sort of like if the rules called for throwing baseballs at people's heads to see the effects of TBIs.
