I would say that these subjects are more likely to turn into vocations than the teaching of how law and economy works.
I see it like when I learned about programming, I was frustrated to learn about language theory, complexity, graphs, etc. I wanted to learn langages, frameworks, specifics for being ready to work right at the end of my degree but it would have made me more fragile and less versatile to future changes. Although law and economy are less likely to change as fast as the latest cool tech stack so this example is not the best.
