This is why reenactors, who are generally frowned upon by desk-only historians, serve a useful purpose.
You can't pay someone to try out a tool or method for a couple of months, you need some kind of very special idiot who will not only do it for free, but who will also look at it critically and go "this sucks, let's do X instead", and then continue having fun with it.
