Obviously if on average everything gets better you still don't ignore potentially long term harmful effects. It's clear that microplastics have been infiltrating our systems dormantly since microplastics have been around and so its probably a good idea to find out why so that we dont construct a world in which we are entirely dependent on them if they do turn out to have a significantly bad long term effect. Oh wait, that's already the world we live in.
