[PR] Moves the silicon channel implant to a limited manudrive. Gives the manudrive...
#21
I really like how the silicon channel promotes cooperation and talking over laws with other silicons, as its a really unique aspect of silicon and really fitting. While individual silicons can be too strong right now, that's more of a balance concern with individual silicons and less of a concern with this unique aspect of them. I feel like having roboticists always have access to the channel would basically remove that. That being said, I see no reason why roboticists (and the rest of the crew for that matter) couldnt message the silicon pda channel (just not hear messages from it), that way there still is that overarching communication.

That being said, the current implementation of this pr just seems confused. Having non roboticists have access to the silicon channel has never been a distinct concern compared to roboticists having easy access to that channel. Even though roboticists tend to have a meta thing of not being a snitch for silicon channel, ideally a meta aspect to not ruin a core feature of a job shouldn't be needed. With it being given to all roboticists, I feel like there will be many roboticists who wont be in on that meta aspect, and tell whenever some borg mentions the new law about humans. This would basically kill all antag usage of the silicon chat, so whats the point of excluding it at that point? These seem like two contradictory changes, one seemingly aimed at limiting who has access to silicon chat, and the other practically guaranting a human is always on it, that conflict with the goal of limiting the robotics implant access.
