Why did they have to invent a Superhuman Serum?
To be honest, Ben had no desire to see people with Superpowers flooding the world.
Because you could never know what someone who had gained Superpowers might do the next moment.
Even among Super Heroes, plenty were essentially inexperienced rookies, let alone the villains.
Ben's words woke Connors up.
Having seen Peter and Ben's successful cases, Connors had subconsciously imagined the Lizard Serum as something equivalent to spider abilities.

If you could dilute it, others could purify it. If that failed, they could simply buy large quantities and reproduce the original serum all the same.
In this business, the most important thing was keeping the formula secret. Once it was cracked, patent law was nothing but scrap paper.
After all, the ones who wanted the formula most were probably the American Military and S.H.I.E.L.D.
What could you do if they cracked it?
