I apologize, I was focusing on a lot of the comments and missed that you had made that point.

I don't currently know what the rules are for human testing. I think it should be theoretically possible for humans to submit themselves for whatever testing they want, but I also think that as soon as that market exists, there will be those who attempt to exploit it in ways I'd consider unethical. That's a complex issue that I don't have an opinion on yet.
