Galton never had a need to know about the RF....would you spread that information to someplace you were going to sacrifice with the possibility that some mention of it would survive? It's the same reason as not letting anyone but a very few senior leaders of Galton know about Darius
Galton, with SD. They built them or they had to buy them and buying them would leave a paper trail for people to find.
So, ok Galton was planned and settled and organized as an arsenal world for the Alignment. It was building lots of missiles and it builds other things. But other than shipping vast quantities of materials off the the Alignment though various cut-outs and doing things like supplying the PRH Navy in Exile in the same manner, who the heck are they also dealing with.
This is a star system planned to be a fortress and arsenal. They are cranking out "things" in terms of war materials and ships. Ok, the Alignment is probably paying for stuff or perhaps not. How, exactly, does Galton survive as a heavily industrialized and militarized system? Does it import anything- other than information from the Alignment? Does it export and get paid for anything? Building hyper-capable star ships would appear to be expensive but there is no trade that we know of other than transfers we could infer to the Alignment directly or it's cat's paws.
Where are the Streak Drive ships built? Is that Darius, because putting the construction at Galton would leave information (and tech) to be found unless ALL the yards were part of Alamo and you could guarantee nobody who knew anything of building them would die? Do those same shipyards at Galton build merchant shipping and, if so, is it primarily to provide a source of ships for the various covert and sub-rosa operations of the Alignment. They could be building almost any type of common SL or other set of neck ships they could get their hand on (actual plans etc or buy a ship and just copy it with their own upgrades.
Who, other than Alignment crews at any level or remove have actualy been to Galton? We don't know. We do know that Hole-In-The Wall existed but I find it hard to believe that Galton would let anybody that touched there continue on to Galton.
So many questions.
