I nodded. "They’re isolationist, but not like Starfleet. They don’t think contact with humans is a morally bad thing, just that it’s holding us back. Presumably by forcing us to keep conforming to human culture and so forth, I guess. But they are neutral on the question of interference with any locals, so I figured it would be relatively safe. Of course, if Starfleet gets hold of it, they’ll go ballistic. But really, what can they do besides scream loudly? They aren’t here, they can’t get here in less than a couple of decades, and I have control of the local hardware, so they won’t be building local ships or androids."
