It's a post from a propmaker community of replicating an iconic prop? Movies are all about how they make the audience feel, and everyone remembers the creepiness of this particular prop in The Rock. It's awesome that someone replicated it because yeah - it's a very impressive prop because of exactly that reason - it was basically a character itself in them movie, and was an impressively constructed visual piece which was meant to exude menace. You're doing a weird thing of saying "obviously this is about nerve gas"...no it is first and foremost about a movie, a story, and the emotional narrative it told.
