> No, the second people start weaponizing your research you have the option to stop participating.

I want to agree with this, but I'm not certain how I would act if I knew my options where a) continue weaponisation research or b) get shot in the face.

Crucially, option b) is actually "get shot in the face and then someone else weaponises the research".

Making a principled stand is only useful when it stands a non-zero chance of accomplishing something.
