So, the results aren't published? How is that consistent with how science is supposed to be done?

Or do you mean there are spinoffs? But then how is science supposed to be superior at producing these compared to directed development of actually useful things?

Depends. The control is on what research is done in the first place. For example, effectiveness of ivermectin was not even studied during Covid. New treatments that can be patented however was.
