The process in drug discovery is: invitro work, animal models (zebrafish, mice, rats), clinical trials, release to public. It is completely standard for work to be done in mice, and to dismiss it in this way is a nothing burger. There is a piece of truth in that "animals models don't always pan out", but that's the state of the art whether we like it or not. My point is, if you start the criticism at "mice model, opinion rejected", you are rejecting nearly all basic bioscience.
