I haven’t read any confirmation, but the designs look way too similar to be coincidental.

It would also be fitting that the Bene Gesserit “Witches” should adopt such an implement to test their own subjects, lol.

    Some of the needles were found to have hollow handles with retractable points, yep, but not all as far as the article suggests. Invariably some needles would have drawn blood, otherwise the “tests” would have been even less credible to begin with.

    As credible as such tests could appear even back then, lol.

      Yes, not all were hollow but the ones that weren’t fake looked identical to the ones that were fake so the trick could work.
