Nope. Humans have really long life cycles. Imagine how long an experiment that requires 2 generations of humans will take? Behavioral problems, etc make reprod

Nope. Humans have really long life cycles. Imagine how long an experiment that requires 2 generations of humans will take?
Behavioral problems, etc make reproducibility harder.
When we can overcome those problems, like with cultured cells, most prefer human cell lines.
But the intention is to have a "model" rather than the full thing.

More research, more study material. In the two generations you'll have a cure+extra compared to a single dedicated animal study, that may not even work on humans. Loosely speaking.
