Let me give you a blunt answer as for the “why”:
The way investigation works massively involves:
- Public Interest
- Funding
- Profit & Attention Generated
If you are not able to gather all three, unless you have the resources to do and back it up yourself, you won’t get the traction needed. It will either die or be killed.
Even though Science should be about scientific experimentation and possibilities, it is rather dogmatic. Have you questioned how a study is followed and starts? Look at the way the metaphysical is approached, for instance.
If they were to develop further studying in these areas, they would’ve probably outgrown themselves. They would develop more in 10 years than in the last 100 lol.
But, then again, have you looked at how the world works and the three pointers above?
In a world full of meds, controls, subliminals, the last thing being wanted should be that people develop the abilities to cure themselves. Especially if it is as risk-free as it gets and mostly costly free as well.
I mean, where’s the control and profit in that?
Meanwhile we’re starting to see cars moving without fuel, fully eletric etc, if you only knew how many projects were destroyed for such, like 20-35 years ago…lol… And they were indefinitely more sustainable than these eletric and hybrid ones.
Those are a few of the reasons I personally believe the Sapien team is experimenting and collecting research and stuff. Because they will need to be able to “back it up”, for the three pointers above.
The world will not be happy about that.
