Why should i glue those Pure badgers ?

A friend of mine gave me 2 pure badger knots
Base knot 24mm and Loft at 67mm,he get them from PC Woodcrafts and Pens.
If you remember my previous "how i test my knots" you can understand better the procedure:

Here they are out of the box:





I wash them,let them dry,i load a soap and i made palm lather
I rinse them,let the dry,here how they look like:





I took each one as is dry and made some swirling movements in my palm
No hard push just simple moves as i do in my face lather
It's not a torture,few times left to right and right to left as a normal shaving,here the results:





For me that's a knot failure,no good backbone,not adequate for a proper shaving with swirling movements,just painting that i don't like it !


In comparison with a Frank Shaving pure badger knot,24mmm knot base glued few mm inside the handle.
Here they are before the test,both of 3 of them:



Here they are after the test,take a look the FS's,almost as it was,stiff and ready for more action
The PC WP's they just collapsed !



How can i make the decision to glue those knots ?
Would any of you take the risk and glue those knots ?
Tell me your opinion.

Don't waste your time, glue, or handle on those!

My first thought was to toss them but take a look from above the diameter of those knots
Comparing to FS are smaller,if i dig the handle and put them a little deeper i thing they would look like an 20mm knots.
I am hesitate because you know my fiend how much work need to be done to remove them and clean properly the "nest" of the handle.
Should i try with silicone just for one shaving ?

Their horse hair is the same-lifeless. I would not waste my time on the two from PC WP, but would temporarily glue the FS with silicone, the make a decision.
Good luck,

Thank you for your opinion
The FS is already in the handle,one of my best brushes.

I found a spare handle,i was not using it
A little work on the base knot,i "toss" it more in the handle to prevent overbloom
I glue it not very good but enough to do the test
and the lather began.

In the beginning everything looked good but when the time for swirling came look what happened with a little pressure:



The knot under the foucet,no backbone at all.



Here it is in the end of shaving.



What you think about it now ?
Me, i am not happy at all.
