I addressed the general point since the question was around whether R&D should be prioritized. Whether data centers are required for R&D (or not) is up for debate. Clearly, science to date has not been impeded by the absence of such data centres. Would their existence accelerate science? I suspect a correlation exists but not a strong one.
