[[WMG: Why Ichika Can Use IS Cores]]
As of episode 12, Tabane states outright that Ichika can use any core, that it wasn't intentional on her part, and she has no idea how it happened. Here's my theory: Tabane used the most {{Badass}} person she knew, Chifuyu Orimura, as the model for the advanced PoweredArmor she was developing for the military. On crafting the core, she made a breakthrough that allows for all the "magic" (hammerspace, massive power reserves, etc) that the IS has, but it only worked when a living person wore it--Tabane tried it herself, and it worked fine, so she hammered out any errors and took it to her backers. That's where they found out that because Tabane's model was female, the cores ''only'' work for women, and no one could reverse engineer it enough for it to work with men. Maybe Tabane even tried building it from the ground up with a male model, but couldn't get it right (you really can't force genius you know). Which brings us to Ichika. His DNA is close enough to Chifuyu's that the core still works for him. I don't know how close, exactly, siblings usually are genetically--I know parents are 50% (obviously), but I'm not sure whether siblings are more or less. This also fits well with the "Ichika is Chifuyu's clone" theory. If the only difference is a couple chromosomes, then obviously he's close enough.
Summary: The IS cores only work for Chifuyu. Everyone else is determined as "close enough" merely by being female; Ichika, as her brother (or clone), is close enough on his own merits. And yes, this probably means Chifuyu's dad could use an IS too.

[[WMG: Chifuyu gave away her ability to pilot to Ichika]]
Chifuyu used to be a great pilot, but we never see her getting in an IS, and Ichika has taken hers. Is it because she's an [[TheObiWan instructor]]? Does she have some [[ShellShockedVeteran mental block]] to prevent her from piloting? I think she made the choice to pass on her power to her brother, because he was her biggest weakness. What better way to protect her brother than to [[GiveAManAFish give him the power to protect himself]]?

[[WMG: There was no hacker for the White Knight Incident]]
We are told in episode 10 by Ichika that in the White Knight Incident, missiles were fired from various nations at Japan by a hacker. However, Ichika might be an UnreliableNarrator who only knows the official story, when the truth is much darker. Faced with the threat of a next generation weapon and the fear that JapanTakesOverTheWorld, the final decision is to just NukeEm. When that plan fails, the nations save face by claiming they were hacked. Japan accepts the story officially, but only because they already proved they can win any war that someone else wants to start.
