In regards to GR, there's far more scientific value associated with the rings of Saturn, in that both GR and Newtonian physics cannot attribute such clean divisions between areas swept clear and areas containing ice, dust and rock.
The research dollars should be spent in areas such as these...and it is.
There are far too many variable with the probes, and the really big one, TESTABILITY; you can't test anything so far away.

Mark I can not disagree with anything you say but it do think the matter is worthy of discussion and dare I say speculation.
