Thank you all for the replies.

I agree that prediction accuracy is great for evaluating black-box ML models. Especially advanced models like neural networks, or not-so-black models like LASSO, because they are NP-hard to solve.

Linear regression is not a black-box. I view prediction accuracy as an overkill on interpretable models. Especially when you can use R-squared, coefficient significance, etc.

Prediction accuracy also does not tell you which feature is important.

What do you guys think? Thank you!

Did you read the paper that I sent? ;)
