A fundamental error in the epistemology of some social scientists is the idea that the proper definition of "social" involves a normative preference. All scientific statements about cause and effect must be a-moral statements.

There is no “right” boundary around a system. There is no “right” way to count the world, or to categorise it. There is no “right” loss function, or error bound. Sometimes these choices are less important than other times, but science of all colours involves normative preferences

Offsetting what you have an epistemologically justifiable right to believe to know with a normative bias can not be justified if you want to approximate truth.
