I like to avoid cruel experiences for animals where possible but I think there are times that we can justify it. Medical science is one of the few times. I'm not a fan of cosmetic testing on animals but medical testing is worth it IMO.
If this device can help someone that is otherwise paralyzed interact with the world that is life changing.
It does expose that I value human experience way above animal experience but I've yet to find a reason not to. We use them for food, as many of them do to other animals. It's an odd part of life that suffering is part of the circle of life.

- madrox 4y agoI think it’s easy to justify. I’m likely alive today based on medicines and procedures perfected on animals. I do not besmirch that. I’m saying I could not be that person who performed these surgeries and look at myself in the mirror when the day is over.
