<p>I have maximum respect for humanities in the older tradition. Sanskrit and classical philology are a lot more substantial than modern linguistics, cognitive “science lite”, interdisciplinary Latest Buzz Studies, etc. Old fashioned (qualitative but erudite) social science had far more depth than the current fashion where misapplication of statistics is postured as “science”. Be very suspicious of any field that is not self-evidently quantitative and imports jargon from math and hard science.</p>
