This pre-supposes that the center should be grounded in reality while ignoring that through most of human history, reality was not a driving force in decision-making. That’s a feature of the scientific revolution, the Renaissance and Reformation periods of human history. In the grand scale of things, people-writ-large are still not accustomed to basing decisions on factuality or evidence, but on authority and myth.
Fully teaching this and why it was necessary takes years of education, unfortunately.
If we acknowledge that the right is fundamentally about traditional ways of behavior, we have to acknowledge that a purely factual and evidence-based approach is something entirely different from this. A problem occurs though, if we fail to acknowledge that purely rational people are actually in the minority. Whether we like it or not, the vast majority of people still use some myth to guide their choices, and that’s where the actual center is from a population standpoint. Look at the popularity of things like astrology.
