Finance people (well, the ones that actually make money trading) don't put much stock in EMH either..



I assume you mean they don’t put much stock in the strong EMH - Which is true, but the concept is the underpinning of most risk-weighted investing and some form of it (eg weak or semi-strong EMH) lines up nicely with why index funds outperform on a very broad basis.

I’m trying to think of a good analogy to CS.. maybe “Good engineers don’t put much stock in artificial intelligence”
