Probably a fairly controversial idea but ill say why i think it would be good for the enzymatic reclaimer to only accept human bodies (dead or alive) when emagged:
1. would cause medical to engage with other departments to find a method of disposing bodies such as giving them to the chaplain to cremate or even giving them to the chef. Or even just SPACING them, but its still something which can be found.
2. a build up of corpses in the morgue is good for some antagonists like wraiths, changelings, and vampires. Which makes it a good place to raid.
3. makes the morgue a place that is actually frequently used, since you WILL be storing corpses there.
4. also means less easy biomatter recycling, meaning medical may run out of genetics monkeys if they rely on them for biomass, which could prompt them to reach out to other departments to source biomass (botany, chem, cargo).
5. Might actually make SR more viable over cloning, as the inability to grind corpses would cause there to be less easy biomass (as mentioned in 4) meaning cloning takes longer to refuel and is more resource intensive
I am interested in hearing thoughts on this
