It's unreasonable to expect researchers vet someone who promises them $500K? In what insane world does this statement make any sense? It's not just common sense, but also necessary for keeping track of conflicts of interest.

It's reasonable to expect some level of vetting, sure. It's unreasonable to expect that vetting to uncover 100% of fraud in 100% of cases. A lot of people spent a lot more than $500k in FTX and none of their vettings came up with anything.
