All I got out of it is that you will get some very specialized training, wait years to use it, and then lose your chance and never get another. They did it because their standard for assistance is accurate representation, not pushing a message*. If they only assist Top Gun style flicks that leads them into murky waters of censorship and a shitload of lawsuits because some film makers didn't get a subsidy, not to mention the issue of freedom of speech being a positive right or not. *beyond the standard "you can't create art in this paradigm without accepting this paradigm", yes, I've seen Zizek's film, I have netflix.
