I trust the guy who is carefully vetted, cannot be a traitor, is generally highly respected, is most likely to be mindslaved, lung, or the first to die, relies on an army that typically doesn't exist, and whose armory exists chiefly to be robbed by dorks more than the guy playable by any dink, can be a traitor, starts with some of the best armor and weapons on the station, and whom you never see unless he's a traitor, killing the hos, or being a doofus.
Authority on the other hand! As far as I'm concerned, they are about equal until one proves themselves to be no fun or a dirty murderer. If the captain wants to turn my upload into a master bedroom and sleep off the rest of shift, and then moments later the hos wants to throw a policeman's ball and bring every noiseifact and bagpipe in the universe in there, they're gonna have to fight it out themselves because I'm not picking a side.
And regardless of who outranks who, they both have to answer to the crew, because if they start trying to pull rank and be buttheads, they're going to effectively have about as much authority Mr. Rathens.
