: 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.
