The assumption is that the Higgs particle is an abomination in nature and sends ripples back in time to prevent its creation suggests two things:-

One that it is an expensive waste of time looking for it.
Two that an abomination might be tied to a single experiment preventing only those experiments not destined to discover it.

In the case of the second point there still needs to be a point in the future where the abomination is created. From that point onward all future generations are stuck with an abomination of nature and all of its repercussions.

To this point no human being has traveled more than a second from the earth's surface (by conventional means). There is no fall back option, no place of safety. Does this mean that if the scientists responsible do not get their Nobel Prizes then they sure as hell don't intend anyone else to get one either?
