Hulk, seriously...give it up. Dr. L has signaled his confidence in the company by 'investing' something MUCH more significant than money -- his time, his energy, and his reputation in the field. There are plenty of other projects to take up his time if he didn't think LL were as important as he knows it to be. His whole point has been NOT to have a vested interest in the success of the molecule, to show that he's above such petty matters as a larger bank account. Maybe you can't understand that, but that doesn't make it not true.
