Actually it sounds to me like you don't yet know sufficient economics to be sure that "disagreeing with central banking falls out of it." Mankiw seems to be saying that he doesn't know sufficient economics to be sure that "disagreeing with central banking falls out of it", and he doesn't think anyone else does either.

There is (maybe) an interesting topic here, but don't presume your conclusion. What if you learn sufficient economics and realize that "agreeing with central banking falls out of it" instead?
