Good point. Startups can get away with using stock photography to show the use cases for their product, but it does seem a little questionable to have stock photos for a science-based company like this to use stock photos of a space that probably isn't theirs, and a 'guy-looking-into-microscope' that probably doesn't work there.

Small tech companies use stock data center photography all of the time. It's usually kind of tacky honestly, but is it really that different?
Its popular to hate on Soylent, so anything goes, including use of stock photos.
