Scientism, broadly. Anything with a way of knowing. That way the academic subject can advance human knowledge.

lol the meme was right
it doesn’t make any difference to the story or to real life
what difference does it make
It is just a wank. That is all literature analysis is. Its value is that people enjoy arguing about the fun parts of a story.
For some reason it has turned into something like numerology but with academic clout. People do free association between symbols in their favorite literature, and they think they are both doing critical thinking and learning something about the world. But it will never be a legitimate academic subject, because it has no way of knowing.
do whatever
