I wonder what percentage of these weird studies that make us ask “why are they spending money on that?” are being done by students working on theses and doctorates and whatnot, and what percentage are non-scholastic institutions asking for government funds to see if you can teach penguins to French kiss.
To be clear this is probably someone’s PhD thesis and they basically do it on their own dime with grants and such. It’s not like the dod playing with bugs for some reason.
“Wasted”? They’re literally figuring out how the world around us works!

If you ever want to do anything socially unacceptable, just say it’s for science.
Remember, we do what we must because we can.
It’s for the good of all of us, except the ones who had their legs clipped off.
Look at you still talking while there’s science to do!
Yup, I got angry at that line, too. This person has obviously no idea about science…

Can confirm that this is a PhD thesis. The guy who made it was my professor when I was in college.
