There's something to be said for understanding manufacturer profit objectives, but in the context of the contest reaching for something "iffy" like what won didn't make sense when a reasonable alternative could show statistically significant benefits. Basically I pointed out we could "grow our own" panels with further research and the judges picked an unproven but Uni backed submission instead. Made me feel like Galileo for a hot minute there.
