2-Common Knowledge is not always correct though.

...Yet it's "Common Knowledge" that Arthur was King of England, that his tales had the Grail as a frequent theme or subject, and that said Grail was a Holy Cup.

So....yeah, Common Knowledge =/= Correct Information.

3-Human Experimentation is a crime against humanity, is it not? And when people say Human, they mean Person, no? Experiments on Faunus make sense in the way that it would drive home how humans didn't even see them as people before.

However, if Faunus Experimentation was a thing, I'm pretty sure the WF would've gone violent much sooner, since it basically means Humans are happy to experiment on them like lab rats, as if they weren't sentient, thinking, living beings like humans are. 1. I don't know why I found this amusing enough to almost laugh.

2. Fair point.

3. Humans are still subjects of experiments in this day and age, just not the kind of experiments that scientists used to perform, as there's a code of ethics now. I didn't mean Nazi scientist level experiments, but rather, the often harmless kinds of experiments.

One example being the experiment where people were hooked up to machines that were scanning their brain activity while they were shown pictures of people's facial expressions as well as just words, to see what kind of brain activity they would get and how much. If I recall, this experiment was performed both on people diagnosed with psychopathy and people who were not diagnosed with it, to see if there was a difference in how psychopaths' brains react to the stimuli of certain words and facial expressions.

It was an experiment performed on human beings, but not a harmful one that would go against ethics.
