Okay. I have a question about the story; Why exactly did Arasaka create an engram with Silverhand's character in it? Why did they keep it so it could be activated and let him live again? I don't get it. In his flashback, the lady says to him 'there are fates worse than death', but... Uhm... All they're doing is inviting the possibility for him to finish what he started.
Can someone explain to me why that plot device even exists? Why did they decide to make an engram of a rocker boy who hates them with every fiber of their being and not some rando soldier / other loyalist? As I understand it, the tech costs so much money only their dear leader can even afford to fully use it, and even then it takes a horrible betrayal from his son to make it work. Why did they decide to use it on a <literal who>, who'd murder them all if he got his way?
Was this ever explained in the game? Because if not, that's a -massive- plot hole...
