Nobody who has been a bureaucrat for decades is a) a "scientist" or b) has any effective "credentials" after those long decades.
Bureaucrats, especially lifers, are good at three things, 1. lining their pockets with graft, 2. using the bureaucracy to line their pockets with graft, 3. protecting the state's interests while lining their pockets with graft.
No lifelong bureaucrat is a scientist or an expert in anything other than bureaucracy.
