Unfortunately I think this proved to be a quite misguided idea in practice, and one that was made more dangerous by the fact that it seems really appealing in principle. As you imply, the people most interested in pursuing these frameworks are often not I think the ones who have the most sober and evenhanded evaluations of such, which can lead to unfortunate results.
(Also, uh, note that I myself converted to Catholicism, but not because of this sort of thing, so give or subtract points from my reply as you will.)

The term used in the past for a concept close to this was “Fake frameworks”—see for instance Val’s post in favor of it from 2017: https://www.lesswrong.com/.../in-praise-of-fake-frameworks
