Scientific and technological progress themselves are value-neutral. They are just very good at doing what they do. If you want to do selfish, greedy, intolerant and violent things, scientific technology will provide you with by far the most efficient way of doing so. But if you want to do good, to solve the world's problems, to progress in the best value-laden sense, once again, there is no better means to those ends than the scientific way.

I have become increasingly aware of how nerdy this makes me. I can directly blame you for sparking the obsession after seeing your post on cephalopodmas. It's been all downhill from there.

Don't blame me. It's the irresistible cuddly charm of the cephalopod that's at fault.
