Clever study that explores the debate between those who claim that color categories are 'innate' and those who argue that they are dependent on language.

"But how will Big Pharma do the R&D for new big discoveries?!" Newsflash: they don't. Heard about those hot GLP-1 treatments? Yeah, all Big Pharma did was race to patent a bunch of highly similar chemicals, the very last step of R&D. Y'know who funded the real research to get there? Taxpayers.
