@grimalkina@mastodon.social I see your point, but it seems to me that the researchers did a good job of balancing the pros and cons, here. I fear that this experiment was necessary (though it will not suffice) as a wake-up call to some who currently desperately need it (including in academia!). The researchers apparently sought approval from an ethics board before going ahead with this, they specifically chose a "condition" that is not life-threatening, and the two preprints have now been withdrawn.
