Ah yes let’s make the entire system vulnerable so a single attack vector can shutdown every node.

I remember a college conversation with a bio major when I said I wished we could just eliminate mosquitos. She said if there were no mosquitoes it would be disastrous because some other thing eats them that gets eaten by some other thing, I don't remember the details, but essentially it would destroy the whole food chain. I couldn't help thinking that these bugs etc. would probably eat something else because you know, they would be hungry. Just a couple students with a little bit of knowledge thinking they could conclusively analyze the world. And new here we all are on social media doing the same thing.

I've read a while ago that the only vew spiders who occasionally eat them don't really like them either, because they have low nutritional value. In short, mosquitos are pretty much useless.

Ain't much meat on 'em.

I would absolutely go for 6 fingers. Preferably an additional thumb. Not to mention an additional joint in each. Let's go base 12!
