So what damage was done? (Three Identical Strangers)

The director of the movie Three Identical Strangers was interviewed on Smerconish today. He said he didn't know whether the knowledge that was gained outweighed "the damage that was done." What damage? I've been thinking on and off about the knee jerk self-righteousness that was exhibited in that movie when, as far as I can tell, the only thing that was done was to put three children with qualified adoptive families and watch what happened. Thoughts?
