I believe we expect too much from words. Fundamentally, pain science refers to the scientific study of pain-related occurances at multiple levels of complexity. If pain is the focus and science is the process, what else would we call it? Happy to be wrong here..

I'll just briefly add that I believe we can learn a lot about pain using the scientific method and still have no idea how matter "manifests" mind..
@LSchneiderPT Even though I don’t like it “pain science” as a term is here to stay. Humans like to shorthand things & that is the root of many problems in linguistics & interpretation. In reality we are study multiple things under a “pain science”+ co-opted as educational method too.
