Personally? No, absolutely not. There should be no differentiating between what can be measured, and what cannot.

I can’t help but look at the reproducibility issue in “Psychology” and notice, what did they do about it? Nothing. It just exists. It’s not real science.

    No.

    Unless it can be imperically proven beyond reasonable doubt in order to remove human bias, say, like politics, et al. Otherwise it is glorified opinion. A lot of soft science is so-called science by committee.

    Hard science already has an existing problem of soft science think-creep as it is.
