Must have forgot to wait for the capacitors to spool up!

But seriously, if they are doing this... Aren't they "tearing" things in my universe too, affecting me in some indirect way? I feel like they have no clue what they are doing (just as the physicists responsible for the Manhattan project weren't really sure of their math enough to determine if it would start a chain reaction, destroying Earth), and they could "burn" themselves or everyone else.

There are interesting applications for this, for instance the mentioned potential improvement in electronic network traffic. Shifting a unit of data through time to allow other traffic to pass more quickly, is how I interpreted it, if my understanding is correct in what they described in the article.
