Other reason is that it has very modest goals, it doesn't allow people to dream of a perfect system that resolves all the problems of humanity.
Finally most people don't want freedom, they want to be ordered around so that they can abandon responsibility

Because austrian economics promotes delayed gratification while people want things "now".
Because all modern economists are raised on keynesianism and are presented austrian economics as a failure and the Fed as necessary.

Unfalsifiable claims, presuppositions axioms, and no predictive capabilities.
The reason it isn’t taught is because it’s irrelevant mysticism, contradicted by behavioral economics (because the presuppositions are false) and unsuited for use in computational or calculational economics (because it has no predictive capacity). There are no useful ideas there, just axiomatic claims.

We barely even care about the utility preference function these days because it’s only useful in consumer and auction economics.

i dont appreciate your sesquipedalian loquaciousness. That would be garrulousness, verboseness, effusiveness or how about "chattiness"?

A predilection by the intelligentsia to engage in the manifestation of prolix exposition through a buzzword disposition form of communication notwithstanding the availability of more comprehensible, punctiliously applicable, diminutive alternatives. Also known as "gross verbosity". Related to this is the use of inkhorn terms, loanwords from a foreign origin that are pretentious to an average speaker.

Because it's debunked by economic history.

Nations did not build wealth through free market economics, they did it through a mixed economic system. Protectionism, state planning, general regulation, mixed with a capitalist marker is a commonality amongst nations that have developed relatively rapidly. That is true for the US, South Korea, Japan, China, Singapore, etc.

I highly recommend the book; Bad Samaritans By Ha Joon Chang for an introduction.

Also, many tech innovations have been due to a mixture of the private sector and the public sector. Private sector investors do not generally invest without a return in 3-5 years, things like the internet took decades of investment. The first smartphone was a compilation of public sector technology.

The Entrepreneurial State By Marianna Mazzucato explains.
Despite writing all of that, I am pro-Agorism. I believe in a decentralized economic system empowering communities and individuals, but it is an experiment.

Forgot to add:

When Pincohet adopted Milton Friedman's Neoliberal (A form free Market) economic policies into Chile, the poverty rate literally doubled.

The poverty rate only came down after he was out of power, and the state began implementing social interventionist policies.

Based on everything Austrian Economists say, Chile's poverty rate should have dropped after they adopted free market policies.
