Sure. The problem is nobody is interested in funding the research/trials.
Given ~15 years of experience using it in myself and many friends I would bet big money piracetam makes a huge difference (in many situations, not just MDMA) and usually is a great thing to combine with anything (I don't know if it's always the case though, perhaps there is a combination which may be deadly) and it's been invented half a century ago but FDA wouldn't even bother to approve it safe, let alone useful.
I wish some scientists could go through all the reports found on the Internet and study every one of repeatedly described effects.

Which is not necessarily bad. They might schedule it as a prescription drug (as in many, although not in all countries) if they confirmed it works.

Piracetam by itself just gives me brain fog. I doubt I’d want to combine it with anything else.

Different people experience different effects. There are some desirable effects most of the people get anyway.
In general, combining drugs is a bit like playing Russian Roulette. Very few such combinations have been thoroughly studied (or sometimes not studied at all), so people rarely have any idea what effects these combinations will have long-term, or sometimes even short term.
Mostly, people take them based on rumors, hearsay, and anecdotes, which is kind of sad. They've heard some random guy on the internet say it was a good combo, or their buddy told them it worked for them, and somehow in their mind that makes it a good idea to try it.
