Hmmm .... putting robots in the crew instead of humans. OK, here's a
situation: Captain Jamison replaces his crew and all those freeloading
working passage type with robots and sets off down the Spinward Main
in splendid isolation. He then gets a nasty case of Enopian toe flu (or
gets jump sickness if you prefer). His trusty robot medic doesn't know
about Enopian toe flu ... RIP Captain Jamison. Let's hope this happens
before his appearance in Twilight's Peak :-) The point of all this
waffle is that robots as I understand they work at Imperial tech levels
aren't flexible enough to trust on their own. Give me a human crew any
day.
