Do we need an Indiegogo project to raise funds to pay them to shut it down and stop making variations? :)

Back up that bus without running people over... I've used them IRL and seen micro-scopic features, so your assessment seems to lack evidence. Anyhow, crazy awesome clinical, education and novelty value. There are plenty of situations

Negotiating is like a muscle. You're gonna want to work on it before the moments that really matter. Easiest way might be to start going to flea markets, because those azn grandmas are killers that make Shark Tank look like the kiddi
