Other than that there are some parallels to AI boxing, no, I don’t know why they need those.
Oh, sorry for being excessively brief then. SingInst would want to know how likely various form of existential risk are so they know how likely it is that humanity will survive for X years without FAI. There are various trade-offs that would need to be made differently depending on how urgent things are.
That’s also possible (to ensure; they don’t want to break it). I don’t think they can do that much for those problems at the present stage. If they barely have time to publish work on the singularity, it probably isn’t a good idea to spend marginal effort on trying to change bio-security policy.
Why bother? Humor is worth it sometimes, when it is really funny, but when someone tries to be funny and isn’t, it’s useless at best, most often confusing, and harmful at worst.
Just because YOU didn’t find it funny doesn’t mean nobody will, and this joke is fairly harmless. It’s mainly in saying something that’s actually true in a sarcastic way that implies the opposite is being meant, when in fact it isn’t.

Also, the law and military processes. Computer security can also be seen as threatening even if the use is obvious.
But yea, mostly I were joking.

Oh. I though they meant experts of how to ensure (or break....) it, not of how good it is in general worldwide.

Harmless in the individual case, but snarkiness really degrades communities over time.
