> Asking whether tardigrades feel pain is interesting, implying that there would be ethical concerns with experimenting on them seems a bit disingenuous. Thank you, I was just pondering the aspect, and was mindful just raising some aspects can be deemed as siding one way or another - an aspect I felt I clarified. I was basing from the perspective of what we did in the name of science in the past and how perspectives change. However it was a sincere avenue of debate/question and certainly not aware of giving the impression I knew more about the subject than came across. Sorry if it seemed that way. It may well be that in a few hundred years time, people may freely label such ethics of our time as disingenuous and that was the area of debate I find fascinating and the crux point I was raising. Hence was wondering if they had expected results or had some idea from data modelling from what they already knew. Though let's be clear - I'm not ethically labelling this as good science or bad science, more that whole avenue of debate around this and how we define such ethics and how they change over time, so I'm sorry that was not as well communicated as it clearly could of been.
