Ves was sure that his decision had massive implications for the Red Collective.
Eliza Mo Ragadan had explained it clearly to him. The RC was running short on funding and resources. This inevitably exacerbates the disputes within its halls.
Though Ves did not think it was necessarily a bad idea to invest into the proliferation of human phase lords, it was too one-dimensional in his opinion.
The cost effectiveness of raising human phase lords was questionable. Unlike Ves, other humans needed to absorb a huge amount of phasewater just to transform their bodies.
In a climate where humans continually lost ground to the native aliens, how could the RC possibly justify the decision to invest in a resource-heavy means of body cultivation?
Even if the immediate combat effectiveness of a human phase lord was undeniable, it was impossible for red humanity to field thousands of them at a time.
There simply wasn't enough phasewater to cover for this expansion!
