I dunno if I really like the argument of "we should be friendly because that way they'll trust and listen to us", because we're not actually capable of being unilaterally "nice" to them. Someone's constantly gonna stir shit up, either by being deliberately destructive with the TCP's environment+home or teaching them a bunch of nonsense they don't clearly need.

This is why I believe they need a metric to judge actions and consequences. We are incapable of performing that parental conditioning with our actions alone, by virtue of being a collective.

As much as I support the whole Justice/Lawful/whatever, I think the TCP's need a rest. My reason for going against love was that we shouldn't give them too many big ideas at once, and this definitely applies to this as well. Let's just stick to explaining to them our inability to make decisions.

The purpose behind updating the monument is so that it is there for them to take in when they have time to explore and look around. The same reason I chose an operations manual for the frog drone in place of beaming the knowledge into their heads.

Most of us have realized that we must take things slower. I believe that the best method of doing so while still making progress is to provide study materials to the TCPs. That way they may advance their understanding on their own time.
