I mean, the science did go wrong too. They tried making dinosaurs all one gender but used DNA from an animal that can spontaneously switch genders. Sounds like they fucked up to me.

Without capitalism, maybe they wouldn't have continued when they found out there wasn't enough DNA for complete dinosaurs.

Or maybe they would have had enough time to think things through, and use safer/more appropriate replacement DNA.

Just spit balling.

Yeah, "good enough to keep making money" is a very capitalist mindset.
