I for one am onboard with pursuing this research. Not just because I think it's interesting and love to scientifically dispel (or support!) "traditional wisdom" but also because pursuing knowledge for knowledge's sake is an admirable goal on its own.
Knowledge is shareable power and I don't believe in "knowing enough" about something we clearly don't know enough about. Knowledge and research have far reaching effects; researching cast iron pan seasoning is an intersection between several sciences and engineering disciplines and no one can guess what knowledge may be gained until we gain it.
