Just to address "producing science".

Science is incremental, often is done with out clear end products, and value can only really be measured much later typically in terms of wide spread effect. Like the internet existed decades before everyone used the internet. And only because tax dollars supported it.

Thus if you want more output, they only true solution is to fund much more science than is funded today.

If some machine takes your money and produces 98% war and 2% science, maybe - just maybe - the only true solution to fund more science is not to put more money into said machine, but change configuration first.

That's true but the machine we currently use doesn't produce 98% war.
