No, and I never said or hinted that they don't exist. We are trying to establish how much of the research budget is spend on them.

It's not about the money that is wasted in developing them, it is about the consequences of their existence.

Again, that's not what we're discussing.

Did you think my argument was that when the government directs and funds research, they disproportionately waste it on WMDs? No, my argument was that big government research spending leads to monstrosities that would otherwise not even exist.
