That behavior is separate from science. Sports fans harbor a same type of attitude, as do a lot of things that are considered 'cult' or underground. The issue is separate from science.

Maybe what the article is saying only applies to popular science and not "real science." That doesn't mean that the author doesn't have a point.

Although he comes dangerously close to making an actual point a few times in his article, he deftly manages to avoid actually doing it.

It seems to boil down to "scientism is not cool" and maybe de Grasse is not really that cool after all.
