How is some human remains a “priceless artifact”? That’s the point, besides like 100 people in the world, Noone gives a single shit.

Ok no. They aren’t human remains, they are incredibly ancient ancestors of humans.
Pick out a hobby of yours for a moment. Something you like. Now let’s say that someone found an artifact related to the early days of that hobby. It’s a very rare one, like maybe the Nintendo PlayStation. Something cool that’s worth studying and learning about what could have been.
Now imagine some rich dickhead fucking blasted it to the edge of the fucking universe. Guess what, we can’t fucking learn about it anymore BECAUSE NOTHING CAN MAKE A FICKING ROUND TRIP TO GET IT BACK WITH CURRENT TECHNOLOGY. Anything we could have possibly learned about it. Gone.
And your response is “so what?”
