    I don't think losing the Technopolitan kit will affect Yuki's perfomance at all now. That's the bit of data that nobody had because nobody, even Yuki, realised it.


I imagined what she might lose is the ability to handle the sort of rapid motion that Anna could. Yuki's brain limits the amount of input she can process - the technopolitan interface probably queued it somehow like a computer helps you multitask. She'll operate perfectly normal, still beyond human, but she might not be able to keep up with Speed Machine from the Machine Shop, for instance.

Anna would, though, and because her computer brain is different, it's much more difficult to take that ability away from her.

    My way of explaining "this is why Al B. doesn't make one of these bodies for everybody in a wheelchair in the world" is that the brain/body interface is a bit of complex Technopolitian tech. Al can understand it but the processes don't exist on Earth to replicate it. Al reused a component captured during the Technopolis War when he was constructing Yuki. People can operate cyborg bodies without it, but not at anything like the level of performance that Yuki gets, computer-fast with human savvy, better than a comparable pure machine.


The human-brain-computer interface is pretty much the reason. Anna and Hallie can get bodies like Yuki's made, but because they can control it directly. Yuki is a prototype; which really hasn't been viable for duplication yet because it's way too expensive (especially because each one would be custom made), the parts are way too scarce, and because even after all that money and time, maybe a small percentage of people can even drive it successfully. A multimillion dollar body that enables you to look more stylish sitting in a wheelchair is useless.

How's that for a reason? \:\)

    But Yuki's been doing this brain/body interface stuff for a while now. She doesn't need the Technopolitan training wheels any more. She's the only person on Earth to develop the mental disciplines to do what the Techno[politan interface can do in her own head. That's why she was able to get past what should have been a permanently crippling bit of damage and do the hero stuff regardless; that and a good deal of heroic willpower.


Yeah, by now her brain has figured out how to operate much of the controls on her own.

      After having her main battery smashed three times now, I think Yuki is going to think about new batteries. She's been a little envious of Anna's multiple batteries for a while now. Anna's multiple batteries are more of a battle-ready feature, to make sure someone can't just shoot her through the torso and be done with her.

    That's a smart upgrade.


Most of Yuki's upgrades were driven by her being sick of the same thing happening to her multiple times.
