Description
In the backend, an Experiment is stored together with its generated trials in memory, after an Experiment was created in the frontend.
For the Experiments list view we don't need the trials but they are still returned.
For many Experiments with large number of trials this leads to unnecessary transfer of information, slowing down the application, especially when the instance has limited resources.
We should only return (and even generate) the trials if a user opens the Experiment detail view.

Research direction
Trace how Experiments are stored and returned for the frontend list view, then compare that flow with the Experiment detail view. Confirm where trials are generated and transferred; done means list responses avoid unused trials while opening an Experiment still generates and returns them.
