DUH, the point was to them, not to those who know it would be pointless. OF COURSE IT IS POINTLESS, because they have nothing. 

Just like you could not get a Star Wars fan and Star Trek fan and Harry Potter fan in a lab, if they were treating that fiction as fact. DUH DUH DUH.

It IS pointless, I AGREE, and my point is if they had something they could actually put their money where their mouths were and not simply masturbate over their fantasies.
