A trip from Tokyo to Nagoya costs 10,600 yen currently (around $106 USD), so if the price will be similar, it's going to be $212 daily commute, which is kind of expensive:

It also currently takes 101 minutes, so besides a daily commute, whats the point of shaving a little more than an hour off your trip?

That doesn't explain lab rats, unless their catching them in front of the dumpster out back. From the FA:

... the weight gain is also occurring in species that human beings don’t pamper, such as animals in labs, whose diets are strictly controlled. In fact, lab animals’ lives are so precisely watched and measured that the researchers can rule out accidental human influence: records show those creatures gained weight over decades without any significant change in their diet or activities.
