“We can’t investigate this because what would be the return on investment?” is not something a scientist is supposed to say

“Why should I quantify why the apple falls from the tree? Whats the return on investment?”
He also said something along the lines of "I'm not concerned with philosophy". There's a little thing called the philosophy of science that the entire enterprise is built upon. You can't just "do a science" without presupposing that you'll be able to gain something from the process.

So it’s not even the “I can’t tell you why the smoke detector beeps, but I can quantify the length in time between each beep” meme. It’s just “The smoke detector beeps, and it’s better to not ask why”

Well if the smoke detector beeps.. if it's lived experience is that it is a beeping smoke detector... what right do you have... to question that smoke detector? We have a lot of empirical evidence and, huh, data that shows that sometimes smoke detectors do indeed beep. If a smoke detector CAN beep that means that when they DO beep they are a beeping smoke detector

Thanks, Neil!
