I get the impression that Feng Shui isn't really about making predictions about reality, but is rather about value judgments and aesthetics. It's similar to how people see the Golden Ratio or classical architecture. If someone says, "living in a building based on classical proportion is more harmonious" we can recognize that there's a philosophical element which is not literally making a claim we can test, and that's fine.

I read somewhere that in Korea, there's a place where they tried to balance out a mountain range by building structures, and I think there's something going on there that is beyond a desire for material results and gain. It's a value judgment about how the world should be.

Of course, the reason Feng Shui is targeted is the result of cultural prejudice, but I think it has just become one of those idees fixes for skeptic community people where they automatically dislike it
