Strange Reagent is a bit weird role-wise and story-wise - it's kinda ambiguous where Necrovirus and Strange Reagent overlap and where they differ, and where that ties into Anima / Life reaction. Necro and Strange are both related to Jam Mansion and the zombie stuff around it.
Strange Reagent shouldn't really be considered a standard practice for Medbay - it's mad science and it ought to have some more risks to it, like maybe getting an NPC mind sometimes or some weird awful effects (delayed onset rotting or something.) Using H. Jam's Magical Space-Bullshit Undeath Tonic to revive dead critters is very entertaining. Berating medbay players for not having this weird obscure chem around to help you skip the drawbacks of the Puritan trait is much less entertaining. It's been pretty frustrating to see that happening so much.
