Can this system also be used in an upright position, i.e. with the light sheet emanating from the top rather than bottom?

Just came across Bertrand Russell's response to Oswald Mosley in 1962 - not as a solution but something to consider too, see e.g. www.themarginalian.org/2016/10/06/b...
When Debate Is Futile: Bertrand Russell’s Remarkable Response to a Fascist’s Provocation
“The emotional universes we inhabit are so distinct, and in deepest ways opposed, that nothing fruitful or sincere could ever emerge from association between us.”

Who is still listening, or continues to listen, or even changes their mind when the data speaks a story that does not fit a particular world view?

For those interested, back in May 2016, the Max Planck Institute for Brain Research has also published a documentation entitled "Dark Years: The Legacy of Euthanasia" that can be accessed here youtu.be/umuTD2md1uE?...

Now, in 2025, a database has been published in which every brain sample is attributed to the murdered, deceased or otherwise killed person and can be accessed here ns-medical-victims.org/mpg-project

Victims of Biomedical Research under National Socialism
During the era of National Socialism, scientists at the Kaiser Wilhelm Society (Kaiser-Wilhelm-Gesellschaft, hereafter KWG) – the predecessor of today's Max Planck Society (Max-Planck-Gesellschaft, hereafter MPG) – in many instances conducted unethical research without the consent of the individuals concerned. In the field of brain research, specimens were collected from victims of the so-called "euthanasia" programs (systematic murder campaigns by the regime against people with mental disabilities and psychiatric illnesses), forced labourers, prisoners of war, people executed by the regime, and civilians from German occupied countries. Some of these brain samples continued to be used for research and teaching purposes long after the end of the Nazi regime in 1945. At least until the 1960s, such specimens remained in circulation, with little or no scrutiny of their origins, and some were discovered to have remained in collections as late as 2025.

from German occupied countries (in particular Poland), including children. These brain samples were then used for research and teaching (and in which publications[?]) long after the defeat of Nazi Germany in 1945, and some were apparently discovered only recently.

eager to profit from the Nazi killings (termed “euthanasia”) domestic and abroad by collecting, staining, and analysing hundreds of brain samples from people with mental disabilities or psychiatric disorders, prisoners of war, forced labourers, or civilians (jewish as well as non-jewish)

at least for a couple of years (if not more).

Besides Hans Jonas who were the other Jewish students of Heidegger again?

So possibly you are quite right that Arendt did not want Heidegger and Heidegger’s philosophy to be entirely dismissed by later generations due to the fact that he
served as fascist chancellor of the Freiburg University and sympathized with Nazi ideology

And perhaps she also felt somewhat indebted to Heidegger. Take that and add some more perennial love to it and you may well end up with a fateful mixture of sorts.

Thus, your point 1 seems pretty valid to me. And she is probably not alone thinking so. For Karl Jaspers, for example, H’s philosophy laid down in Sein und Zeit (Time and Being) was of utmost importance. Same goes for Arendt’s friend Hans Jonas.
