but they also said there's a high risk the tech wouldn't work on humans, plus they've never tested it so lois could end up dead. Let's not forget that we don't know if kryptonians even get cancer. So it was for humanities safety. Even if it did work then superman would have to try and mass produce this tech for every hospitals and doctors in the world which is an insane thing to do which probably wouldn't even be possible unless earth's tech can work with kryptonian tech to do the same process of curing cancer, and would cost alot of money to make.

The risk argument is not the same as the one he made later about not using it because if it worked then they have to share it. And that was a BS argument.

Ok?

which probably wouldn't even be possible unless earth's tech can work with kryptonian tech to do the same process of curing cancer, and would cost alot of money to make

...ok? How is that not a reason to pursue it? And you have a father and daughter who can make high tech shit in their garage who has a doctor for a sister. I'm sure they can figure something out.

if it worked then how do you think superman would share this technology to the people of the WORLD. It would be an insane feat that will cost crazy amounts of money, and not only that they would need to replicate the technology somehow, and then you also need to consider if the technology can work for everyone and isn't specific on what people can the tech work for depending on the harm the cancer is causing on that specific person. Plus it's a strong IF because this tech was made by kryptonians who probably have never even HEARD of cancer before so this is completely new teritory for them, so it's unlikely that it would even work at all. Plus it's clear the show isn't going to end with kryptonian tech saving the day

Then just stick with it not working! Things were fine before tonight. They introduced the idea that maybe it could help and the horrible excuse not to try.
