The similarity of the Dumbbell to the Kettlebell—formed in electrophysical anomalies—has long sparked debates within the artifactology department of Research Institute 7, as have the similarities between many other artifacts. Professor Cubov, head of the department, believes that most artifacts gravitate towards certain universal structures. However, his colleagues counter this by pointing to unique artifacts as evidence that this is not a matter of "universality" but rather of greater structural stability. Meanwhile, the artifact itself, similar to the Kettlebell, consists of ferromagnetic materials.
