Emergence of Whorfian Economists?

I have always been intrigued by the Whorfian hypothesis.  The idea that different human languages strongly affect our thinking styles, communication capabilities and even world view.  Now we have the notion of a Whorfian economist,  previously unknown to me.  The linguists that comment on it, in academic style,  think the whole thing needs to be peer reviewed.
