Hey good see ya again. Unfortunately I wasn't lucky. I'll let my friends know.

I was born in Texas and spent my first 35 years there. It's not like the movies, because life isn't like the movies. I was completely miserable and honestly regret being born due to my life in Texas. Very little help from the government, my schooling was inadequate, and I was exploited by employers multiple times without repercussions. Bad places do make for good people so my dearest friends looked out for me and I them. I'm very glad I moved up North to the Eastern seaboard where there is infrastructure and the average person is a bit less on edge.
I'm going to lean towards I'm too old and crotchety. I became an old man when I was young.
I'm jealous then. I wish I could enjoy more things.
I'm CIS white dude who is rapidly approaching 40, the show is not made for me. When the pilot came out I watched it and I was rooting for the production crew; even watching some of the animatics the production crew made while podcasting.
The contents of what I've seen from watching the pilot and a little bit of the full series isn't intended for me. The struggles the characters are going through are hard for me to relate to. I'm also never a fan of Abrahamic religious framing, I find it banal. I wish the production crew the best, but I have no intention of watching more than what I've seen.
I audibly groaned after figuring out the joke.
A very good point.
Well in your scenario who will implement this? Furthermore, what is the goal that you're trying to engineer with a science based government? Is it personal happiness, population numbers, the production of capital, or to indoctrinate the masses to serve the state? Are you going to justify the use of eugenics? What happens when goals conflict or individuals don't want to participate in experiments? What if the science you're implementing has different philosophies or different schools of thought? How do you determine what is the optimal method?
No. The problem with science is that in part it relies on trial and error. That could get messy on a societal level. We should utilize observation with scientific methods to inform our decisions. Unfortunately a lot of people don't do that currently and scientific data results can also be manipulated to fulfill an agenda.

But I got so much Warhammer that needs painting! I have to like it or Shame Mountain won't erode.
Technically I would say the harnessing and utilization of fire. It arguably changed our evolution requiring less energy to digest food.
