I have to imagine part of the reason why it's not immediately going into the Persistent Universe is that it has to go through all this testing with all these other gameplay features?

Yeah, so it's quite a challenging feature to develop because, one, it's going to Squadron first, so it's a single-player focus first in terms of getting this through, but also to move to the PU, it needs to be fully developed for the multiplayer. And also due to the resources, we are dependent on the downstream as well. And because of the Squadron focus, the downstream have been prioritized, and it's where this fits within that as well.
