Re: Curious, re ILB canon

In Response To: Re: Curious, re ILB canon (thebruce0)


: From my perspective, 'new' content (not referenced in existing material)
: isn't contradictory, nor is the existence of 'reports' which can easily be
: overturned as incorrect or ill-informed in the universe. Now, not saying
: Glasslands doesn't contradict (I have yet to finish the novel), but I
: don't think the "one point oh" class is strictly contradictory
: to canon itself. I mean, even going loosely, it could easily have been an
: experimental project that did get 'erased' from records and reported as
: never having happened to people in Halo lore. *shrug*
: Now if an official encylopedia, an official record of universe facts, states
: that there was no 1.0 program whatsoever, then there'd be a contradiction,
: imo :)
: Personally, I thought the idea of the 1.0's (and 1.1's) in ILB fiction was a
: nice touch. (still waiting for followup fiction on Jan and the others,
: hehe)

: I really have to finish reading Glasslands... can't wait for Primordium.

I believe the sticking point is in Glasslands (and intimated by Halsey herself) is that her standards were so high and the costs so prohibitive getting another class off the ground was pretty much impossible. Where'd these one or two Spartans come from? How many more could there be? (They would only further mess up the Fall of Reach "all the Spartans are here" counts.) If they were created without Halsey's knowledge, it doesn't square with the fact they've never been discussed otherwise.
