Who's to say that it is? It could just be a way to ensure
absolute loyalty and single-minded ness. Also, they might
only be used for sensitive situations where threats against
families of corp guards is an issue. (Hard to threaten the
family of someone who was vat grown, chummer. :-)

I don't necessarily agree. Maybe the corp is using it as
a means to "field test" a new design or something? Like I
said, it was only the very basic beginning of a plot _idea_.
<shrug> I dunno.. I'll do some more thinking. I was just
reading ShadowTech again, and the thought sprung to mind
when the characters were talking about that possibility..
