Pre-internet someone would say the government was covering up UFO experiments, or some crap.

From a completely uneducated standpoint of someone that reads a lot of sci-fi, I think that’s a more reasonable expectation with Jupiter/Saturn?

That may be the point of this.
Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but Venus is essential Earth if we gave complete control over everything to oil companies. "Do what you want, as long as you want". Many, many years later, after ever drop of oil is burned, and every carbon Earth has is released into the atmosphere, you get Venus.
Don't you want to see how bad things can get? Fear can be a good thing.

I think the biggest thing is that pressure equalization can be reached at a certain altitude, so that you would only need a mouthpiece and gas tanks so as to breath gases that humans can live with. Sort of like when sea diving on earth.

Smart enough to be know about Venus's hostile environment, not smart enough to be aware that a space agency knows more than they do

Didn't USSR land on Venus like in the 70s? This is "hey look at this cool thing we can maybe do, give us more money plz" from nasa. Meanwhile SpaceX has rendered them obsolete lol

I love space but honestly who gives a **** about spending money and resources to go to Venus. Spend it on exploring the ocean floor or something to boost our environment.
