Since I am paywallwd a) is it BS b) what compounds?

I am knowledgeable in ethnobotany and psychedelics and I cannot see what this might produce other than nausea and delirium.

a) is it BS

The tobacco plant is a model plant, the go-to for genetic engineering experiments. So often when scientists want to test creating a bio-factory, they will try to modify a tobacco plant.

The idea is not to smoke the resulting tobacco plant with some funky mix of psychedelics. But to extract and purify the compounds from the bio-factory. Resulting in a better production chain than however the compounds are typically made today.
