I look forward to reading her book. Having read a few interviews, I’m concerned that the baby of scientific explanations is being thrown out with the bathwater. There are bad criteria for explanations: cognitive biases, loss aversion, wishful thinking, or aesthetic criteria. And there are good criteria for explanations: internal and external coherence, consistency, hard-to-vary, parsimonious, etc. But good explanations remain vitally important.

There’s a pendulum that swings between the explanatory and empirical bases, and a tendency to err on both extremes.
