Why aren’t there more people calling out philosophers for constantly making claims that sound empirical and either (a) are, but the philosophers aren’t gathering or paying any attention to whether empirical data supports those claims or (b) aren’t, in which case their claims are extremely misleading?

I have run into people that insist claims like “most people believe x” are not empirical claims. This is even more ridiculous than conceding this an empirical claim but insisting we don’t need empirical evidence to know that it’s true.
