> The biggest problem with hyperbolic rhetoric like “not about the established order _whatsoever_” is that if anybody reading can think of even the slightest possibility or the most far fetched of circumstances where the Empires might care about literally anything other than what you claim here to be their sole and exclusive concern… they can understand the flaw in your argument.

They’re allowed to be wrong, yes.

There is an interstellar order established by the signatories of the CONCORD Assembly where at least for now there is agreement to adhere to its rules and treaties, where unilateral military action in that context has potential repercussions, and economic interdependence through SCC regulated free markets makes total war undesirable compared to the financial benefits of maintaining the status-quo of CONCORD.

That might be a valid position to claim if your original post had actually talked about that, instead of about changing the international status quo.

No, Arrach Sarum was not doing what you seem to think he was doing. Arrach Sarum was _saving face_. Arrach Sarum had the planet-wide Reclaiming of Floseswin IV declared _on these boards_, after it was pointed out that AmarrMil capsuleers in _his_ military circuit were making deals with Minmatar Militia capsuleers to _not challenge control of certain system_. He was pointedly embarassed here, in public.

All labour acquisition specialist groups will be accompanied by troops drawn from the Shining Flame company, the Red and Silver Hand company, and the Order of St. Tetrimon. A priority order has been drawn up for the full reclaiming of the population of Floseswin IV.

No, Arrach Sarum was not engaging in any 12-dimensional Chutes & Ladders. He got goaded into a reaction. And even if that _weren’t_ true, House Sarum has been the singular driving ‘We need to resume Reclaiming by the Sword’ force in the Empire for _decades_.

So he wasn’t trying to gain something he already _had_.
