    It is literally his job to be familiar with this technology, which he cannot do if he does not experiment with it.

    Having said that, doing this experiment while sick was probably ill-advised, so in that sense I agree with you, but in fairness he probably was not thinking clearly while he was sick.

      ill-advised

      I see what you did there.

      Surely he picked the very worst thing to experiment with, and at the worst time… And that’s the very best case scenario

        Yes… hence the “ill-advised” part.
