I'm not sure either. I'm just poking fun at the fact that business studies (and management) are stereotypically seen to be easy degree and ones that people take if they aren't capable of doing economics.
Indeed at least for management the modules are much less difficult and significantly less complicated than economics modules in my opinion. At university whenever we had a choice to do modules within social sciences outside the core economics modules, people would always rush to do management modules due to the usual higher grade achievements and also because they were far far easier than corresponding economics modules.
The 'real' part is a jibe against the growing number of stupid degrees (mickey mouse degrees) that are becoming the norm. Business studies isn't a mickey mouse degree, it just isn't a great one because the content has been dumbed down over recent years.
