i mean yeah it will suddenly stop existing in a few months, but that won't be because of a conspiracy, it'll be because another lab tried it and found out it didn't actually work as well as the scientists had optimistically claimed. remember that Taiwanese lab that claimed to have room temperature semiconductors, and then everybody was like "holy shit this is incredible", and then everybody else tried to make it and was like "this, um, isn't a superconductor" and the original Taiwanese lab was like "shit our bad nvm"
