@LuxyLuck70 (A) is incorrect because the critic does not disprove the evidence against popular psychological theories.

He takes no issue with the claim that many popular psychological theories are poor theories because they are inelegant and do not help to dispel the mystery that surrounds our psyche.

He concedes these deficiencies but argues that they are not really important, pointing to the fact that these theories nevertheless produce the right results, i.e. therapeutic success.

Hope that helps! Please let us know if you have any other questions.
