Actually, the reason it's a semi-snark is that it's an unprovable. Even if the effect is "semi-cyclical," every economy is a superposition of cycles, just as any signal wave is a superposition of simple waves.

Trouble is, since we don't know what half of the various cycles are, the fourier goes muddy.

When the Fourier goes muddy, you're supposed to mention wavelets and look profound and professorial.

(Apparently this works in engineering and physics too.)
