I dunno, there are a few of those that I can genuinely see the rationale behind. The "baby cage" looks freaky but the intent was almost certainly to reduce rickets in children who had almost no access to safe places to be outside. If it was properly installed (which it most certainly never was), this would do just that. L Ron Hubbard was clearly a freak, but they still make those stupid strapless, backless, supportless bras. Now they have sticky on them. The "beating breast" thing sounds weird but they use simulated heartbeat sounds in hospitals to soothe premature infants. That was almost certainly a groundbreaking concept when it was made. It doesn't seem silly at all.
