It's even worse for the obliviousness to continue after the said alien just like instagibbed an entire fleet. 
And the latter is why it matters "operationally". They don't even TRY to wrap their heads around the existence of Chamber.
To say "it doesn't matter" is ridiculous, when the said alien obviously has the capability to annihilate them if they so willed it.
It's completely and utterly illogical, and the only reason why it persist is for the sake of plot. You cannot deny that. |
Yeah, it's pretty hard to swallow. I think basically any human culture, no matter how primitive or what stage of advancement they're in, will have a handful of people who are intrigued by the nature of an advanced visitor. Beyond that, leadership sure as hell better have some interest from a purely preservationist perspective, on top of their natural curiosity.
