* Been eight years since Legends 2 was released. Think [[strike:Volnutt's]] Trigger's experiencing that in real time?
** It'd seriously put a dent into the reputations of the incredibly motivated pair of {{Gadgeteer Genius}}es if would've taken them this long to master something as rudimentary as applied orbital rocket science.
*** Hey, there's a reason their main backer is called Werner von Bleucher and not Werner von Braun.
*** [[Film/YoungFrankenstein * Horses whinny, lightning crashes* ]]

** The events surrounding the primary antagonists of Legends 2 give the implication that the Master System and all of its associated units follow their designated protocols without question. That would include obeying the commands of a unit with a higher System ranking. Data gave the proper override commands, therefore the System did as it was told.

** The point of the Carbon Reinitialization Program was to get rid of the Carbons so that the Humans could be "reborn" and live on Terra. Humanity was nearing extinction so they did not have enough traditional Human DNA left. It's likely that the Carbons were the result of the remaining Humans trying to create new bodies for them to inhabit, made to be as close to Human as possible. Them existing as their own "species" on Terra was supposed to just be a temporary thing until every last Human had died.

But the last Human did not die, instead he managed to make himself immortal through The System. The Carbon project was then stuck on autopilot with Satellites bombing the surface to keep the Carbons from escaping. Once The Master went down there to see what they were like, he fell in love with them and had Trigger destroy the entire Carbon Reinitialization Program, sacrificing Humanity for them.

* It is implied that Carbons are a mix between organic, mechanical pieces, cybernetics, and maybe nanomachines. Instead of being 100% artificial, they were most likely made based on human DNA with something like nanomachines helping the more mechanical ones reproduce. That means the humans called them "Carbons" to dehumanize them because they aren't "pure" humans. Is that actually the case, though or are they 100% artificial? They are able to reproduce just like humans and look completely human in most cases. Even if they are a new species, you could probably call them "homo sapien mechanicus" or something. Also, if that's the case, then just why did humans hate them so much? Assuming technology would have allowed humans and carbons to cross breed, then the last "humans" were basically just racists with extra steps, right? We don't know for sure that Carbons and humans could cross breed, but given how advanced they were, something equivalent could be achieved given Tron sees her Servbots as her children and no one argues with that assessment.

** Also, Juno implied that Megaman was involved in some kind of underground ethnic cleansing program meant to kill everyone deemed to be "pests". Given he had no memories and Data said they were in hiding from Mother... Yeah, Megaman probably didn't want to admit he was created for mass murder while also making his family worry about a potential threat that even he didn't understand. Plus, given Roll's need to find her parents, she may have chased after Megaman's past in a similar fashion had Megaman shared his concerns. Videogame/NamcoXCapcom outright shows that Megaman is very insecure about the fact that he doesn't remember his past despite it all being stored in Data. Barrel, on the other hand, may have benefitted from knowing all the details so he could research it, but again, Megaman would have every reason to not have someone running around poking at the genocidal monster hiding under the bed.

** Also, reploids are based on X's design. Volnutt and the others are implied to be able to reproduce somehow (nanomachines maybe?) because they have libido. Even X and Zero never seemed to show any, err, more basic reactions to their love interests. Volnutt actively blushed seeing Tron and Roll naked.



** Hyperbole most likely. Also Tiesel seems the type to go for "that one big score" that would pay off their debts and let them live in luxury forever.
