My thoughts go the the paelontologist first finding this - they start with a little paint brush, carefully uncovering a tail, then more tail, then a month later they are still on the freaking tail, worn down the bristles on two brushes and thinking "yeah yeah career making discovery but jesus a velociraptor would be done by now." Edit: This is amazingly cool however - and honestly I cannot wait for Covid to end, decent public funding of science to appear and a facsimile of this skeleton to get stuck in every natural history museum going - my kids will be sick of their dad dragging them off to see a 120 foot long pile of bones - but up close and personal is pretty much the only way to appreciate this sort of thing. Right that's it - tomorrow it's tape measeures and chalk outlines in the road outside!
