I Love how they put a sunny, happy, face on this, concentrating on the benefits of learning how they are able to go dormant upon freezing then revive when it's warm enough. We already have species who do that on a regular basis we can and do study. We do not need these to learn about it. They already know how they do it! They said NOTHING about possible problems or blowback from this to the enviornment, or even climate change!
It's exactly like naming radiation "sunshine units" 🤬
