But the ARRL doesn't claim to have expertise in economics. If they 
criticized BPL on economic grounds, why should anyone take them seriously?

Now if the ARRL has members with expertise in economics, that's another 
matter: such members could attack it on economic grounds, and perhaps 
the ARRL could even circulate their analyses -- but that still wouldn't 
carry as much weight as an economic analysis carried out by somebody 
with no connections to ARRL or to ham radio.
