'There is an irony to all this research: nonattachment would also lead one would to become non-attached to attaining an outcome; scientific research is inherently outcome-driven! Regardless of what was found, a true sage with equanimity would shrug their shoulders at the results and say, "so what?!"'

Evidently, this article confuses nonattachment with indifference in places like the above quoted. An enlightened person would not say, "So what?" They might say, "This is interesting. I will read about it, learn about it, and although I do not need to attach to it, I am attracted to it and will enjoy it, which is perfectly fine."
