The text tells us that Merlin has already decided that NEATs cannot be implanted currently because they would be discovered.


If detection is an issue then design for difficulty in detection is possible.

We know that Merlin has access to best Federation medical technology, so he should have something which is able to hide that. Also a staff in Imperial Palace isn't that big, so they could swear oath not to talk about it, with outsiders. Which is pretty standard oath for them considering amount of diplomatic talks there.

The problem is that you can't hide major surgery on a newly born.[/quote]

I'm curious how NEATs were viewed by the original Adams & Eves, and their descendants. Were they included in paintings and sculptures, or how did the Writ and the Testimonies explain them away? I would think if someone in the current Safehold timeline displayed one, then everyone would think that the archangels had either come back or somehow the person in question had just been bestowed a divine gift. Instead, the assumption of this group has been that anyone now showing up with a NEAT interface is a demon. Just an observation.

We know there was a memory upgrade, so what other upgrades were creatred when it was fashionable. Say that merlin secretly arranges for these upgrades to be disseminated some how with the the imperial population, i doubt altering fully grown people, just making sure htier children have the upgrades, and altering new born children.
By the time they can start to advance the world to fight the threat from outer space, they will have a population able to fight alot.
