Shellfish allergies are common amongst Jewish ethnic populations. One tries an oyster, instantly dies, the rest go "ahh... Maybe add that to the holy book, just in case." Another says "naah, coincidence!" and ALSO immediately dies, and they add it to the book.
We've known forever that this is the case. If it's in a holy book, it's probably because it's so obvious a process that even hicks in hide tents could figure it out. God made these things pretty obvious. I won't blame the scientists on "wasting science", because they could be trying to make some kind of point about varied populations and intelligence development, but this is some spurious use of research funding.
What we might consider to be spurious science is still important because it proves a lot of the traditions of the Bible to be true for a reason. Like, for instance, we now have data about pair bonding that helps reinforce the reasons why the Bible repeatedly mentions "one man for one woman". Or the litany of medical reasons explaining why faggotry is bad for humanity.
Tl:DR: The Bible basically outlines what's not good for society/mankind, and science helps explain the reasons why.
