        I’m rank 175 40 minute excursions into hell are one thing, but I already live in an authoritarian, kakistocracy dystopia in the real world, I do not need to live in one turned up to 11.

        Oh, my sweet summer child, you think they’re clones?

        Lore says they are not. This is why I have my diver voice set to random, canonically every diver is a unique person who volunteered (“volunteered”, given it’s Super Earth, that word does some lifting) to join.

        You wouldn’t be coming home at all after a year, unless you somehow manage to get a cushy position operating a super destroyer instead of dropping from one. This is part of the reason they’re so revered by citizens in-universe, they are explicitly not clones, just held in cryostasis storage and deployed as needed as highly expendable special forces.
