You might find today’s article esoteric and maybe even ridiculous, but eight years after Keith Chen first described the influence of language on economic decisions, it is a well-established fact.
I am not sure that linguists would agree that Chen's theory is now a well established fact. Instead, it could just remain one case among many when it comes to linguistic associations, ie involving weak statistical techniques and spurious correlations.
