more spoilersThe reveal wasn't just that aliens existed, it was also meant to show the government's abuse and mistreatment of the aliens.

And you may not necessarily want to livestream your only living specimen from an easily identifiable location while the entirely of the human race is processing the reveal. Religious extremists might not feel the same way about alien life as our sweet old nun did.

    yet more spoilers

    Eeeh, I mean, the main mission was definitely proving the existence of alien life.

    Would you really ask these people to put their lives on the line just to prove that there was torture too? If they failed and Wardex took back all the footage they could still just roll ET out and get it to testify about the torture.
