Too bad there's no money in pharma and medical research in general.

There is plenty of money for marketing. Research is a distant second as you probably well know given your nickname and if someone put their study on hold for a half decade or so just to make sure that the software they use is properly put together the funding would evaporate rapidly for that particular team or individual.
Let's institute a ban on pharma ads, at least the ones that disclaim "don't take $NEWDRUG if you're allergic to $NEWDRUG," and give the money to research.
