Why isn't phenylpiracetam more popular?

I've had great results with phenylpiracetam. Without a doubt, it has been the nootropic that works best for me. Gives me alertness (but no jitteriness, I just feel awake and normal - kills all drowsiness), focus, and a tiny mood elevation. I'm surprised I don't see more people talking about it. Is there a downside I'm unaware of?

Is anyone actually selling the R- isomer rather than the racemic mixture which appears to perform worse in animal studies?

I've only tried what I presume was racemic 'demiurge' phenylpiracetam. Didn't find it a reliable stimulant compared to modafinil and caffeine.

It's not economically feasible. The synthesis is 4x the price. Nobody would buy it.
