* As "Effect and Cause" shows, the test of the Fold Weapon completely devastated a massive [=IMC=] research facility, causing a TimeCrash and killing God knows how many scientists, guards and support personnel... And it was considered a ''success'', given that the target of Typhon's moon was destroyed. The fact that Marder is happy to move forward with the firing of the full-scale Fold Weapon is a very clear demonstration of the [=IMC=]'s [[WeHaveReserves incredibly callous attitude towards the loss of personnel and resources]].

* It's scary to think that if Blisk didn't stop Richter from messing around with the dead bodies during the campaign's beginning, he would've stumbled upon Cooper, who was still alive and killed him.

** According to the flavour text in Titanfall 2 and Titanfall: Frontline, Ash was rebuilt from a backup copy of her personality by Vinson Dynamics after the events of the campaign. However, not all of her memories were carried over, which is why she is seeking out the Remnant Fleet to retrieve them.

** All his talk of "If you wanted me to kill him, it should have been in my contract" may have also been him being GenreSavvy, too. If he really wanted Cooper dead (which he logically would), he could have negotiated a new contract there-and-then to kill him. However, he possibly realized that sorting out payment with the [=IMC=] over Coopers' life would have taken so long that BT would have likely recovered by the time payment had been agreed upon, so didn't even attempt to, and instead opted to leave. Given [[EarthShatteringKaboom what happened shortly afterwards]], it was probably a good call.

* Why doesn't Blisk finish off Cooper after the Fold weapon knocks out BT with Cooper still inside, helpless? It's part of his philosophy. Coopers' wiped out most of his unit more-or-less single-handedly, so he's a WorthyOpponent. Blisk believes in "You kill me, you're better. I kill you, I'm better", which implies that killing another person is a show of superiority to him. As such, how exactly does killing Cooper now, when he can't fight back, proving that Blisk is better than him? It's not a case of not killing him because he has no reason to (fiscally or otherwise), but a case of ''he won't kill Cooper in anything less than a fair fight, in order to prove that he's better than him''.
** Not just that, but by killing the rest of the Apex Predators Cooper has ensured that Blisk is the sole recipient of their paycheck from Marder and the IMC for delivering the Ark core, instead of splitting it six ways had the rest of the team survived. Considering the high stakes of the Typhon operation, the contract was probably worth ''a lot'' of money, money he just received moments earlier. For Blisk, a man who's explicitly OnlyInItForTheMoney, Cooper just did him a huge favour.

** Another possibility is that Blisk is very much aware that his outfit is dead and if he wanted to take on another big contract, he'd need a crew again and he doesn't want to waste obvious talent. He'd need people who've proven themselves effective and lethal... So, possibly that calling card is a job offer.

** The easiest answer is a form of BrainUploading: as suggested in "[[AllThereInTheManual The Art of Titanfall]]", technology has allowed the human mind to be inserted into robotic bodies as "Simulacrum", of which Ash and Spectre Pilots in multiplayer are classified as such. Whether this is a case of one's consciousness capable of being uploaded into any mechanical body or [[BrainInAJar an actual human brain inside a chassis]] is not clear; however, the fact that Ash appears to lead the Vinson Dynamics faction for multiplayer, which is implied to occur post-''Titanfall 2'' campaign (since the Angel City map contains updated "Most Wanted" posters of Jack Cooper), suggests the former is likely.

** And, by letting Cooper stop Marder's plans and destroy the Fold Weapon, Blisk will keep the Frontier War going, giving him more opportunities to ply his mercenary trade.

* How exactly did Ash come back to lead the multiplayer function, given that she died inside an IMC facility that exploded, on a planet that also exploded? Sloan mentions finding both Ash and Kane before the planet explodes (more specifically, during the mission to repair the communications tower so the Militia troops on the planet can contact their forces safely), so its' possible they recovered Ash then, a good while before the planet explodes. Still, given the circumstances surrounding the two possibilities on how she died (crushed in [=BTs=]' hand, or being inside her Titan when it explodes), she can't have been in good shape when they found her.
