Look if econ had little influence outside its field, I would agree and say who cares. However this is hardly case.
I would agree with something you suggested though. We would do well do just discuss the end results and remember that the models are trash.
The real damage comes from macroeconomics and I'd agree that most of the models used there are crap - because they fail at prediction.
