So, given your silence in the face of so many words, I shall keep going forward.

According to the Science Council: "Science is the pursuit and application of knowledge and understanding of the natural and social world following a systematic methodology based on evidence."

Scientific methodology includes the following:

Objective observation: Measurement and data (possibly although not necessarily using mathematics as a tool) - Psience does this;

Evidence - Psience has tons of this, although it can mostly be observed and understood by psientists. Just like in advanced mathematics, for example;

Experiment and/or observation as benchmarks for testing hypotheses - Psience has this;

Induction: reasoning to establish general rules or conclusions drawn from facts or examples - Psience has this;

Repetition - Yes, reproductibility is at the heart of psience: its conclusions can be tested and tested by competent practicioners and the results will always be repeated, using a variety of cases and approaches. And where this applies, the reversed process can also be achieved, where effects are observed, causes are inferred from these observations and the expected causes are then discovered as expected;

Critical analysis - Psience has this;

Verification and testing: critical exposure to scrutiny, peer review and assessment - Insofar as there are peers, which are few, psience also has this;

Therefore all criteria are met. Psience can be applied only by its practitioners (obviously) but on anybody. Its applications are endless, but serve only the practitioner himself. Psience as a service to others will not be offered for a long time. There is no money to be made from it. Besides, the entirety of the science is under NDA, I think for this reason: it can therefore not be commercialized. It couldn't anyway, but at least this way people don't get hurt trying to do it.
