Because the thread was about the FDA. I have no clue whether the claim about ketamine is valid or not, but I do strongly suspect that "The FDA has not approved this" is not relevant (since they have a clear motive to oppose the substance even if it is an antidepressant.)

If no place else has approved it, then that is much more useful evidence against ketamine, and I'm glad to encounter such :)
