I think that Keats is not trying to convey fake reductionism, but he is trying to convey "scientists believe in fake reductionism".
The fact that he doesn't believe it himself doesn't change his misunderstanding of it.
I don't see any reason to think he's trying to convey that scientists in general, or good ones, or anything like that, believe in fake reductionism. Some people do, and it's more charitable to Keats to presume he was just alluding to them.
