      Indeed. And there's also the questions of international jurisdiction, security clearances, quality control, discipline, joint strategic training etc.

    Plus that the world might feel overrun if there are so many LL's, and move to ban then from operation. They might start using words like "takeover" and "militia". There's also the possibility various branches might fight with each other, possibly violently.


Yep. And some "branches" have alliegance to specific sovereign governments (such as Giant Robot Six with Japan, or Project: Pendragon which is effectively an arm of the British security services). Others have restrictive recruitment policies (such as religious or sexuality requirements). Others have different rules of engagement about use of force or civil rights.

    The anchors Shen Rae's ship exist because they create a wormhole, something you don't want to happen inside your ship. Then as the anchor is pulled through that wormhole, the ship is towed behind it. As the anchor self-destructs on the other side, the wormhole closes.



    Quote:
    So far, Al B Harper's theory describes the first step of that, but works in reverse - instead of towing in the helicarrier, he's trying to pull something out. Then again, genius types like that tend to invent something and then discard it, so he might not even realize what he's done until a long while later.


I doubt it's a technique Al will bother developing. He's got a zillion other things to discover.
