Elaborating on the program, Valeria Lawless explained that 'Our new union structure improves upon positive results we observed in South America, Earth during the NERC scheme, where we found that smaller test groups reported more positive results. By reducing the scope of each union representative's supervision to a single facility, we hope we can better understand the individual needs of individual employees, and clear the muddied waters that arise when representatives with totally different needs are unable to come to an agreement.

There are exceptions: most industrial brands utilize a shared standard set of connectors, and of course there are Unbranded models that play well with any and all parts.\
Nonetheless, attempting to splice together parts across these lines runs into a variety of technical problems. Most common are sensory and motor cross-wirings, leading to synthesia, uncontrollable jitters, and occasional paralysis. These are uncomfortable enough that most amateur bodymodders give up after one too many hallucinations. Certain combinations of parts run into structural issues-- putting a Hephestus torso on a pair of Morpheus legs is likely to deform those legs badly. Any cross-design kitbashing is likely to result in some level of structural instabilty and poor balance without hard work being put into the design.\

Most of these can be addressed by a talented roboticist, but nonetheless most people tend to stick to a single brand of prosthetics. People who see their body's makeup as a means of self-expression, or as a machine to be optimized, are much more likely to take risks in pursuit of these goals."
