I am skeptical of any claim by and to my tribe about the deep spiritual benefits of our distinctive forms of entertainment.
Agreed. Science fiction, like any kind of fictional evidence, biases your thinking in ways that are a priori unlikely to make them more accurate. For example, science fiction prominently features technological solutions to problems, so it probably biases your thinking towards technological solutions to problems and away from, say, changes in social policy.
