Now there's an application of the Centipede's Dilemma that never occurred to me. Although I think I remember coming across at least one mention of one ship being able to assimilate and use raw material from another ship. I wonder, would that feel to the Mental Model as if she's wearing someone else's clothes, or having bits of her anatomy surgically swapped out for someone else's?
