Tor for STEM and Math?

I'm wondering. Is any use case for Tor for STEM and Math outside of CS and computer related engineering.
I mean, is it useful to search for papers or scientific articles? Is Tor better for research purposes than Google Scholar or Advanced Search?
Why would a Physycist or Matemathician would use Tor?

Yes, it can be useful. If and only if you are intelligent with the use of it.

If you just want to read papers.
Your isp will still flag it though :/
Probably not worth it I guess.
