It isn\'t being rewritten. Speaking as someone with literally encyclopaedic knowledge of its history, all of it is entirely matter-of-fact true as far as I know, and I did compromise by merging in your version. If you want to go down that road, might as well ask why you felt the need to rewrite it as a CrapSaccharineWorld PolishTheTurd falsk glorification hideaway?

I know that strangely enough there actually are people who feel as strongly and defensively about this as Scientologists do about their sci-fi sect, but even if they somehow manage to rationalise the validity, despite ludicrous inherent requisites for the mythology, and tons of contradictions, the actions still have the same horrible consequences for the inhabitants, so it doesn\'t make the MU any less of a mixed [[HPLovecraft Lovecraft Mythology]] + \

Oh, sure you could do the utterly inane BeyondGoodAndEvil faux-enlightened HandWave, but it doesn\'t really hold water unless they truly aren\'t aware of what they are doing or strictly acting through unconscious processes. Once they are shown to hold actual conversations with the people they victimise, they definitely aren\'t apart anymore.

I might as well ask why you felt the need to rewrite it as a CrapSaccharineWorld PolishTheTurd hideaway? Basically nearly every single showcased cosmic entity qualifies as insane degrees of entitled and conceited casually genocidal pure evil by human standards, at best of the LawfulEvil variety, with the rare exceptions of Eon, Uatu, and Ashema... Or Chaos&Order, who Thyssen far have been TrueNeutral.
