Experiments can always be framed as a waste of resources.
There is always something you're using up that you could put to direct productive use, even if it's just your time.
The potential information you gain from the experiment is a currency. Discount that currency (or have a low estimate of it) and yeah you can frame the experiment as a waste of resources.
