You make a good point. I don't want the forum to tremble, because it's me that will be here to feel the trembling!
I kinda hoped our Christmas treat would be finding a USS with Thargoids getting their barnacles whipped by a Wing of Type-10's and then Aegis hailing us "successful test CMDRs, let's rush this one to market!" with shipyards offering the beast a week or two later...
