"the idea that someone could somehow gain anything useful from spying on a random oscilloscope"

Well, Target was pwned via its air-conditioning unit. I'm personally thinking you could use this to inject other systems - no one would suspect the scope - or infect it, wait for it to be transferred to another lab and then mess with stuff on that network.

Just use your imagination.
