Angry, angry about elves.
There is so much repetitive whining here that I am not going to bother addressing all of it. See: the many posts in this thread addressing your issues.Yes, because the Organization will never fall. That it will always maintain the status quo because you decreed it to be so.
Limiting the Arc Tech is perfectly within our rights as the developer of the tech. The fact that we developed the Arc Tech means we can and should set limits for it instead of throwing it out and moving on to a better one, relying on new tech to always maintain that competitive edge.
Ignoring the fact that all organizations are made from people that when if sufficient amounts of people are convinced the organization as a whole can be moved.
Escalating actions. One rogue agent could lead to more which can snowball into a disaster. The odds are low but it can happen, and preparing for that in case it happens is the smart thing to do.
Also, you clearly missed the point where proof had to be provided, and even then the proof came in the form of extremely contrived circumstances. All it would take would be Tali to be killed and poof, you have 1 person starting a war despite all you fancy talk about business and people being motivated by greed.
You're severely underestimating the damage a fanatic can do and are perfectly willing to arm them because Greed.
But since this is my last post on the topic, let me repeat one:
Again.YOU HAVE COMPLETELY IGNORED THE FACT THAT YOU ARE PROMOTING THE CREATION OF A HOSTILE ENVIRONMENT. Again
What the fuck are you talking about? Tali dying means that Saren got away with it, what war are you referring to? Alliance vs Geth? That was going down anyways. Alliance vs Council? Never even considered.All it would take would be Tali to be killed and poof, you have 1 person starting a war despite all you fancy talk about business and people being motivated by greed.
"Odds are low" ...extremely low, so low as to not be a definitive factor, meaning we could safely ignore you like Mikhailovich...except that your ridiculous proposals increase those very odds, while providing minimal (read: no substantial) benefits.
No, you don't have a point. You have whining. It has been explained several times why your false patent wont work (espionage alone guarantees it).Not my point.
What i was saying is that because we have to sell reactors to maintain the patent, Arms Companies can get their hands on them and use it to develop power armor in the style pioneered by us and sell it to anyone who is willing to pay for it.
Because we're being forced to sell the reactors, we do not know where they will end up and what they will be used for.
Limiting the power it can produced means that if by some bad luck we end up facing it over the battlefield, we will have the advantage because our Arc Reactor will generate more power then theirs, so our shields at least will last longer.
Bringing that back to the suits we sell to the SA, it ensures that said suits will always be better then the knockoffs because of the extra power it has.
Who cares if they develop Arc Reactor Power Armor? In the long run, we want them too. From an IC perspective, by the time they do we will have the Mk. 2 and Repulsor Cannons, maintaining a definitive qualitative edge.
Remember that in the OTL, the Alliance had a qualitative edge over the Batarians. Before you factor in us. Why would that go away?
Oh, and this:
You bet your ass they will. This isn't me decreeing shit, this is me noting the over 2500 year history of the Council maintaining the status quo at all costs.Yes, because the Organization will never fall. That it will always maintain the status quo because you decreed it to be so.
