it's always a bit uncomfortable seeing folks extolling science as the exclusive solution to everything.

Indeed. "We will do stupid shit because science will figure out how to clean mess after".

The role of science in society is deeply tied up with values, norms, and policy.

Especially policy. You can tell science to make as much money as possible or you can tell science to make lives as good as possible.
