This one's been bugging me for a while. Why does our research reveal so little and almost never result in a new discovery? For example, the 'telekill' material. Literally all we've done is find it and hoard it. For some weird reason, we haven't been able to find out what it is, despite us having a ton of it.
There are also countless examples of SCPs where we have absolutely no idea how to analyse the cool stuff they can do, but we keep them around (169 or something, the old man), supposedly for the good of science. The GOC has clearly had success destroying SCPs, so if we suck at research, the logical course would be to destroy the object.
Seriously, guys, stop being so hard on the researchers! Give them a breakthrough for once!
