Re: To both retinence and Jillybean

In Response To: Re: To both retinence and Jillybean (Narcogen)


: If this were true, why wouldn't Half-Jaw have objected strenuously to Hood's
: assertion that his cruiser "glassed half a continent" during
: Halo 3?

: I assume terminology is not an issue, since either all parties are speaking
: English, or having their native languages translated as required. Once
: Hood's term "glassed" is translated and footnoted according to
: the human definition of the term, either what Half Jaw has done in order
: to fight the Flood infestation is exactly as lethal as Hood thinks it is
: (but justifiable), or else he should object.

: He objects not to the term, and what it implies, but instead justifies the
: action as necessary. If it isn't as lethal as Hood thinks it is, it
: doesn't require justification.

You can see even in Reach's opening cutscene that glassing does have a very negative effect on the atmosphere and the terrain of a planet. You can see, however, that humanity managed to fix those problems over a few decades.

Even the Covenant may have believed what they were doing was enough, but apparently Humanity has found a way to reverse the process.
