With all due respect but has this whole WCG project produced any real world benefit or is it just calculations for the sake of calculations akin to SETI Project with ZERO results so far and only hope keeping it alive?

It's real science, most WCG projects eventually release scientific publications and contribute to improve knowledge. There can be though years between calculations are finished and paper is published.
Computational biology and chemistry are nowadays essential, many universities and research institutes own computing farms to run projects. So it's certainly not calculations for the sake of calculations.

Can you give one example of such paper published?

You can find links to some papers in these news: https://www.worldcommunitygrid.org/about_us/displayNews.do?filterCategory=1_0&filterTags=14&sortBy=&pageNum=1

I'm surprised that there's so many effects of these calculations. I thought it is more like SETI but comes out like something worth participating.
