I have had so much fun being able to dispell my biggest and now non-existent plot holes for this story since it has come under this new microscopic scrutiny. I am now left with one science question that is beyond my wheelhouse that I would love to hear an explanation for: If Eridians are supposed to be so incredible at math that their species never had the incentive to create calculators. Why is it then that Eridians never discovered relativity or radiaton? If humans were able to predict the existence of singularities through mathematics, what stopped Eridians from forming any reletivistic theory of spacetime or an elementary/quantum theory of matter?
