"This is why each country needs to educate and maintain their own researchers across as broad a spectrum of disciplines as possible. A"

There is no such thing. Countries spend gazillions on Academia, the Academics do waht they want.

There are no real government places or jobs for that kind of thing. It comes at great expense and vague outcome. Or it gets entangled in bureaucracy.

What you're hinting at is a form of 'utopian governance' - like - it perfectly makes sense on paper, and it's actually rational. But it's completely unworkable in the context of how governments and organizations actually work.

It could on work in theory, not particularly well in practice.
