making the engineers start the engine

[jflan17]

People set up the singularity because it was easy and you didn't have to babysit it. It took 6-10 minutes, tops, and then you were free to fuck around.

People don't set up the current engine because, just like in real life, shoveling coal is a shit job.

Anyone suggesting punishments for not setting up the engine clearly doesn't understand human psychology.
