I think to finding out how personality works and what it is could be helpful in the long run. By accessing the neurological trappings of personality and the building of behaivor patterns and what hormons or wath ever are involved, therapy for many psychological conditions could be improved so in my oppinion the research is not pointless at all.

Reasearch how the personality of individual HUMANS work, by studying how actual people resond, not octupi. The nervous systems and physiologies are completely different. Plus, there really is no way to gauge if it has an actual personality since you know, we dont 'speak their language' >_>

Id rather do a more practical study, with volunteer subjects and measure the volunteers responses, because the closest thing to studying a human is actually having another human being volunteer to be the subject.
