Because it seemed very irrelavent to if they were good faith researchers. I dont know if i agree - critiquing classmates designs is a quintessential classmate activity - but regardless i don't understand how this connects to the rest of your point. Say they weren't acting as classmates. How does that change anything about if they were acting as good faith security researchers, which is the point under contention.

Just because its an opinion doesn't make you not responsible for it.
I don't know what was in these people's hearts and minds. They could be secretly evil for all i know. However i think its morally wrong to call someone immoral without positive evidence they were acting wrongly or had bad intentions. Yet you seem comfortable calling them immoral basically on the sole basis that the work took place on a friday and a misreading of a document that they referenced but not even in the part of the document they were referencing? You allege they have an ulterior motive but you don't even put forth what that motive might be. Like respectfully, i think that's kind of a shitty thing to do. These are real people and deserve to be judged based on the facts and what can be drawn from the facts.
