Evidently your not up to speed on this topic.
The hell I'm not.
I know the 40k warp often behaves in illogical ways, but you can't use that to try and force a conclusion of "my argument is illogical and the Warp is illogical, this is an argument about the Warp, therefore I'm right."
Among other things, as I've already said, the reason the warp storms are connected to Slaanesh's "gestation" is in no small part because Slaanesh
actually existing in the 30th millennium and later can affect reality in earlier millennia because of how the Warp works.
Suppose that we abort Slaanesh's future existence by disrupting the activities that led to Slaanesh's birth. On the one hand, this removes the future "cause" underlying the past "effect" of the warp storms.
It would be far too optimistic to expect this to retroactively mean the warp storms never happened, though such paradoxes can occur on smaller scales within the Warp (e.g. an Imperial guard regiment responding to its own distress call and being slaughtered to the last man, sending out that very same distress call in the process, which back-propagated to an earlier point in their own timeline).
However, nevertheless, from the perspective of points
after our intervention, the underlying pressure causing the warp storms has been relieved. The effect is in the present and the cause is in the future, but negating the cause undermines the effect. Furthermore, the
immediate cause that
does exist in the present (Eldar murder-cult shenanigans) has
likewise been negated or undermined by the very act of aborting Slaanesh (since this presumably involves disrupting the Eldar shenanigans that brought Slaanesh into being).
While it is far from certain that the warp storms will gradually over time dissipate, if both their proximate cause (Eldar murder shenanigans) and their ultimate cause (that Slaanesh is ever going to be born) are undermined or negated... It certainly seems like a reasonable expectation. Conversely, there is no pressing reason to assume that warp storms which only exist in the first place because of the murder-shenanigans and the eventual birth of Slaanesh will go on existing forever just because Slaanesh was stillborn.
That seems really illogical, since if the Deny option requires resources and what not to be used on aspects like getting rid of the curse in the stone and moving toward effecting the Fall. Then those are resources that aren't focused on improvement and research.
And in contrast the Accept option would guarantee all resources go into improvement and research. So how could it possibly not effect tech tree development and development in an of itself.
It may well prove that in the long run, we gain more from observing the Aeldari than we lose by not concentrating fixedly on our own internal development.
If you like Warhammer 30k or 40k as a setting and want it to be recognizable with the Imperium and modern Eldar existing, you should vote Accept. If you want to have us start playing as a growing interstellar empire after we have been playing on Mochantia for six years, you should vote Accept.
Welp, I guess I just hate both those things with a burning fiery passion, then.
[X] Decline the offer (In the following turn, Isendral will ask you to donate a currently unknown, but significant portion of slannpower in order to unravel the insanity enchantment around the stone before whoever wove it comes looking. You will have a limited amount of time to prepare for their arrival, and the chance of being caught in the crossfire between Dominion Eldar is moderate. You will be allowed to remain on Mochantia, and see the situation through, come what may.)
