Agreed.

The biospear had several problems. First was they failed to get the air right. After a period they had to introduce oxegen.

Unfortunatly as they had sold to the media as an attempt to make an independent enviroment. RTher then an experiment to learn and develop such stuff. The media instantly started leaping on the fact that they failed.

This caused everything finacial to collasps. As it was a privrate project.

A uni took over. They then had other issues with fungus etc. But looking at what we know about fingal networks now. Many years later. Its hard to know if this was not more informative then believed at the time.
