@ReviewsPossum “Scientists have a right to play God. And this is by, of all things, an anthropologist. One has a right to play God or play Hamlet or play the organ before the world, only if he has the capacity to do so. So the question is just how god-like is this scientist?”
@Art444Star The in-universe explanation doesn’t work too well when other human-built systems lack guardrails (see Ep 1 death pit) but I do think it’s more simple to say “people in Star Wars value workplace safety less than 21st century westerners”
