Someone said any field with "Science" in the name isn't really a science. Computer science, data science, political science, social science, etc. Physics, chemistry, biology don't have science in their name.

The etc. would also include cognitive science/neuroscience, medical science, earth science, material science, agricultural science, veterinary science, geoscience, food science, etc.

And of course as we all know climate science is fake./s

Generally when I hear a field with the word "Science" in the name I think of it as a more interdisciplinary field. Take Earth Science it draws on different areas of physics (ie wave physics), biology (ie ecology) and chemistry (ie kinetics). Earth science is still very much science it is just doesn't fit perfectly into the more foundational fields.

That's the most unscientific thing I've heard in a while ;)

Then there should be a field "Science studies" that combines both unscientific worlds.

Physics, chemistry, and biology are all part of the Natural Sciences.

That's an expression, not an equation. And the space between data and scientist quite obviously indicates that the two combine multiplicatively, not linearly as you have mistakenly written.
