"I wouldn't put it in the same league with a law of physics or else you could make some definite predictions about a population of eels (say) and what they will be in 2 million years. I think it's more along the lines of a law of economics. Do you call laws of economics laws of physics?"

You have to be careful here. Not everyone is careful about terminology. The best you can say is that sloppy writing does not alter reality.
