A lot of marketing strategies are pseudoscience. Just like a lot police investigation practices or body language assumptions.

Some marketing strategies are pseudoscience, but this one isn't.

Does anyone in the thread have actual info to back this up?

This doesn't meet the bar you want, but my marketing professor called the .99 idea the single greatest thing to come out of marketing in a century.

Marketing hasn't done anything positive for humanity. It is all just to manipulate people into buying shit they don't need. It is the main driver for the overconsumption.
