   The term protoscience is used for a discipline not accepted as a valid   
   discipline right now which implies that things will change in the   
   future. Threating everything as protoscience is equal to anything goes   
   and this blurres the borderline between valid and invalid. I wouldn't use   
   the term protoscience for fuzzy logic, i would call the discipline pseudo-   
   or fake science because Fuzzy theory has gone in the wrong direction.   
      
   Around 1 million papers are published about the topic in Google   
   Scholar. This is not a sign how well Fuzzy logic works, but it shows   
   that Google Scholar has a quality problem. The crawling robot has indexed   
   too much predatory journals and it would be nice, if Google removes the   
   fuzzy journals from the index, as some kind of spring cleaning.
