while I like this change in concept, I think its bad-feeling execution a symptom of a larger design choice regarding powering the station - that being that it kinda just falling into a boolean of Everything Hooked Up To An APC's Working or Nothing's Working. there's very little that conveys what the specific things that draw an apc's power are, especially if you're not an engineer, and not really many ways to use the power you get efficiently beyond turning off lights I guess
infrastructure to let specific apcs draw more power from the grid if, say, the CE approves a request for it would be neat, as would letting borgs/roboticists be able to adjust the charge rate of docks. more nuanced usage of power is something I've dreamed of seeing for a while now and I'd really love to see it get pulled off well
