Explanation
Since private funding is hard to get (the expression “right and left” means “everywhere, all around”), the researcher was happy that he or she no longer had to pursue this private funding — suddenly, the research is being paid for — subsidized — by the government! Full-bore and wholly both mean “entirely.”
Trap answer impeccably (perfectly, spotlessly) is positive but inappropriate to describe the government’s paying for something.
Full-bore and wholly are best fit!
