The engineer nodded and shrugged, "Oh trust me, Lieutenant, I completely understand it would weaken the Alsea. Like I said, I defer to you and the Commander on this decision, barring any override from the Fleet Captain.

Either way, I'll still be making some modifications to the MicroCore. It's what I do when I get bored."
