I don’t disagree with “why even bother”. But again following the scientific method, it wasn’t proven to be improvable. Scientifically speaking, we just don’t know.

I realize it’s not a very comforting thought, though. And I don’t mind people who believe otherwise.

If it's something invisible with no physical manifestation (as the soul is thought to be by the believers), it's quite literally improvable.
