The silver lining of concentration camps is the human experimentation which gave solid evidence for solid science.
There is no such thing as a silver lining to that. What Mengele and his goons did had no scientific backing, produced nothing but tortured and maimed kids, while killing thousands more to prove some crude ideas
But they didn’t even follow the scientific method or produce decent data.
We know perhaps marginally more from them, but the poor note taking and lack of systemisation make both Mengele’s, and Japan’s Unit 731, “experiments” close to useless.
And that’s disregarding all the ethical issues that modern non-fascist people of ethics have.

They did conduct human experiments with scientific goals in mind. The ethics were questionable (to say the least).
But they didn’t even follow the scientific method or produce decent data.

My 6 year old nephew also has a scientific goal in mind when he launches dirt with his shovel catapult. Doesn’t mean that he produces anything useful
No, he doesn’t.
