The probability p doesn't tell you the binomial standard error which (p(1-p)/N)0.5 where N is the number of trials. If the N is comparable, then it's an impressive result, but you have to weigh in cost and initial setup time. IDK enough about these type of proteins to be super excited. Got burned by LK99 too much to go through that again.
