That sounds more like a support objective. Or rather, a support methodology; it's not an objective in and of itself.

I mean as of right now, our current goal should be to go improve things with Kyouko, and put off the science until later when we can focus on it and we've gotten the more important thing (building bridges with Kyouko) out of the way.
Hmm, we need to start a list of objectives:
Short term (a day or two):
I'm only starting with "top level objectives" here. I'm sure I missed lots of points, and each of these can probably have lots of "sub-objectives" that can be filled in, but maybe this can help us in planning.
Short term (a day or two):
- No idea, I'll let those better at day-planning than I pick this one up.
- Find a way to reverse "witchification"
- Find and befriend (or at least get onto speaking terms with) all the main cast
- Prepare for Whataburger Night (one of the few threats that could out-power us in terms of raw power, we probably won't be able to just brute force it like the others)
- Find out what Oriko was talking about not likely surviving until then, and try make it so that she can.
- Learn more about grief, magic, and our abilities
- Help Mami "de-limpet"
- Figure out our origins (confirm or dis-confirm our theories so far)
- Find out about and deal with as needed whatever the "bigger" threat beyond Walpurgis Night was
- Find a way to improve the system in a sustainable way
- Get the word out to MGs in the local areas (nearby cities)
- Find a way for the Incubators to not sabotage our efforts
- Help girls with their psychological issues (like getting professional help, helping where we can, etc)
- Get the word out to MGs everywhere in the world
- Convince the Incubators to adopt new system, or stop them from being able to sabotage it
- Integrate into society (get identification, go to school, at whatever level matches our effective education level)
- Try to avert potentially disastrous conflicts
- Attempt to befriend or at least get on speaking terms with MGs we meet
- Save the people we reasonably can
I'm only starting with "top level objectives" here. I'm sure I missed lots of points, and each of these can probably have lots of "sub-objectives" that can be filled in, but maybe this can help us in planning.

As I see it, most of our immediate concerns centre around cementing the interpersonal stuff - in our team, in our city, and more widely. Including but not limited to -
- Get on speaking terms with Kyouko,
- Get Mami on-side with Oriko,
- Maintain and, if an opportunity presents itself, strengthen links with Masami, UG, SG,
- Establish (at least) a cleansing arrangement with IG.

You know what Sabrina's thought process doesn't have enough of?
Cats.
Aranfan , what did the BleachDoctor pay you for this? Or was it Amura?

You say that as if I would need to be paid to spread images of kitties.
I disagree. The more we understand about how our powers work the closer we get(potentially) to being able to break the system. I feel we should be experimenting whenever possible. Every scrap of time not dedicated to solving current issues or sleeping, if we actually need sleep, should be dedicated to experimentation. I'm not saying we shouldn't pursue other goals but that we should be multitasking as much as possible.

Look, Sabrina is A PERSON, you ignoramus, several updates should have driven that home... She has feelings , ideas and so on, we are just aort of a very large part of her unconscious thought processes. Acting like that will break her before we break the system

Unfortunately as magical girl, we have to become warrior and psychiatrist. Science while vital and fun to do, is the least important from the three.

It'd turn us into Homura. We don't want to be Homura. That way lies bad fashion sense, being overprotective of Mami, and having cheap costume wings taped onto our back.

Probably evil, unfortunately.

I don't know about everyone else, but personally I'd prefer that Sabrina at least act like a human being.

Exactly. Sabrina is not our sock puppet , guys... And treating her as one is going to bite us, hard.
Yes, but she ended up in something even worse than The Dress, so...Ahem.
This. It'd be embarrassing if we had to be mothered by Homura of all people about acting like a person.
Developmentally, we're already pretty high up on the 'warrior' side. I have no idea why you would consider that more important that science, as science is fundamentally important to any long term solutions.
The psychiatrist aspect is more ambiguous. Sabrina is very much not suited to be the psychiatrist, but is forced into the role. I'm also not sure if this is supposed to encompass a number of other things, such as social interaction, politics, etc, so I don't know how to evaluate it, comparatively speaking.

We are more suitable as a scientist that's true, and we don't really need as a warrior class considering our ability. But as a psychiatrist? Who's gonna do it? We still need to comfort Mami, Homura is....Homura. Madoka and Sayaka is not a magical girl. There are no option left.
So... thoughts?
Unnecessary insults aside, I see nothing in your statement that is fundamentally at odds with cmwatford's statement except possibly for the sleep aspect. I will assume your final statement is based primarily on the suggestion of giving up sleep, as it's the only way it makes sense.
I'm not saying we should run ourselves ragged, I'm just saying we should pursue every opportunity to advance our understanding of our powers. Lives are hanging in the balance.
Was the insult necessary? I'm well aware that Sabrina is a her own person at this point. I'm not advocating treating her like a machine. I feel we're being too lax on trying to fix the big issue. We keep passing up on opportunities out of fear that we will break Mami further even if the odds of such are minor. Mami is important but not more important than the world as a whole. If we want to get this done we're going to have to accept some risk on the Mami front.
...No,we aren't? There really is no situation where we need to break Mami to fix the world, and that's not a good way to approach things. Yes, some of our science is important. Vitally so, in the long term, which is why we should keep doing it.
No, we shouldn't pursue it above all other immediate priorities or put it above every other aspect of what Sabrina's doing. Any individual science session is low-priority as long as some science gets done and we make progress.

Not sure what thoughts there are to give, as your statement is largely.... not really saying anything? The issue of psychiatric therapy has already been brought up extensively by SWB, and having an actual professional involved in that would be far more valuable than Sabrina's amateur attempts. She could probably be better at it, and it will certainly be something she needs to handle at least some of the time, but asserting that it is the single most important thing to focus on (given the grant that the warrior side is clearly not) just doesn't really make sense.
