I appreciate "truthisms". It will join "truthiness" in expanding our horizons of just what truth can be, if we only squint at it just so.

It would be a bit much to ask, given that all of those words are defined relative to each other. If mainstream economists did heterodox economics, then they would either cease to be mainstream, or the economics would cease to be heterodox.

You don't seem interested in the existing variation in methods, beliefs, or ideological leanings among economists. So, what would change if they started using other (non-Marxist) approaches to economics?
