Does this fit the "we shouldn't do this just because we can"?

Yes.

I don't know. If we could convince certain politicos, they might actually fund space exploration whereas currently they want to cut the budget to nil. On the other hand, if they can be convinced this would be a great political coup that would pwn the opposition...
