And in practice, even most good-aligned realms use them, because those who don't have difficulties defending themselves effectively. The main difference is that they set the drain to "slight" even in the poorest sections of the city...Why do people today live in areas with no potable water, or in the vincity of garbage dumps or chemical plants with no pollution controls?Because they have no choice, that's why. And given time, people can get used to almost anything.In the Industrial Age, lots of people moved to cities where they - if they were "lucky" to get a job at all - worked at horrible conditions at wages that were barely adequate to cover their expenses. And they lived in cramped apartments that were usually so decrepit that they could collapse any day - often, they didn't even have decent stairs.And the same is still true in most "Third World" nations today - and many "Second World" nations as well. Yet people keep on moving to the cities because there they have at least a snowball's chance in Hell of earning a living.So getting people to live near Nexus Towers shouldn't be too difficult...</blockquote>
