Nyeh, EU's just people fighting to make science a democracy (in which they are prominent citizens), when clearly it isn't. Human psychology - science battles the unknown, EU battles the incomprehensible (to them). It's a lash out at a field that in its complexity has long left the layman behind, an attempt to blindly (ignorantly?) re-establish some relevance in the scientific process. To that extent there is a lot of ego involved, but also a lot of low self-esteem that needs a whipping boy - THE ESTABLISHMENT!
