Thanks for the reply, Bob—it’s great to learn more about this. It seems that so much just comes down to the available options. If freezing bugs feels like the only available option, it’s totally understandable that people would do that. Without a clear consensus on what the best course of action is, people would probably rather do something than nothing. As for the live dissection thing, I suppose it highlights the complexity of making procedural changes in a scientific field.
