Are the Other Stars Inhabited by Beings?

We have another feedback from joyce the trucker on youtube. Why would the perimeters of the experiment be changed after the results are in? Isn't that akin to bad or junk science? And it's then a debate about, was that the right move, or was it not the right move? But that's really what it comes down to, isyou either, once you've collected your data, if you think there's a design flaw, you either try to compensate for the design flaw, or you have to chuck out the experiment altogether.
