Wheedon's no physics >genius, he's an entertainer. Controlled circumstances in a lab may not have duplicated the PAX effects on that planet. Do recall the bit of info in "The Train Job" that all the terraformed planets and moons have some kind of gotcha as a result. PAX + whatever was not right on Miranda = Lie_down_and_Diers/Reavers. It's not like sort of "we tested in the lab and it's fine" turning out not so fine later isn't happening now. Remember when it was a GOOD idea to use asbestos in a home? Remember when salesmen ATE DDT to show how harmless and safe it was? Remember watches/phones with Radium in them so they were visible at night?
